Hi.
I've experienced very similar behavior and log message. I do not know what
is the problem in detail but my guess is that standby system has data which
is incompatible to accept streaming replication of the master.
The way I solved is the following on Ubuntu11.04. Suppose postgresql.conf
and recover.conf (on standby) are ready.
0. Stop postgresql on standby
standby# /etc/init.d/postgresql stop
1. invoke pg_start_backup() on master
master# sudo -u postgres psql -c "SELECT pg_start_backup('2011-08-15_04:49)"
2. remove data files on standby
standby# cd /var/lib/postgresql/9.0/main
standby# /bin/rm -rf base pg_*
standby# mkdir pg_xlog; chown postgres.postgres pg_xlog; chmod 700 pg_xlog
3. copy data files
master# rsync -av --delete /var/lib/postgresql/9.0/main --exclude=pg_xlog
--exclude=postmaster.pid --exclude=server.crt --exclude=server.key
/path/to/standby/data/directory
4. invoke pg_stop_backup() on master
master# sudo -u postgres psql -c "SELECT pg_stop_backup()"
5. start postgresql on standby
standby# /etc/init.d/postgresql start
Then, I found streaming replication just started to work.
