Preparing hot standby in PostgreSQL 12

I have created a standby.signal file and added the parameter hot_standby='on' in postgresql.conf file but i am still not able to query the standby database 

Database is not getting open for reading.

postgres@ip-172-31-31-150:/u01/db10/pg_wal> psql -p 5490
psql: error: FATAL:  the database system is starting up

The database is starting up, this is expected.  You need to consult the server logs for relevant information pertaining to the startup/restore process.
