i've never used texfont but could you try 
--fontroot=/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.tetex/fonts/

since
 (1) this is IMO *the* font-root
and
 (2) according to the err msg,
      /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.tetex/fonts/../fonts/afm/urw/courier
     is equal to
      /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.tetex/fonts/afm/urw/courier
