It sounds like the standby isn't becoming ready to accept connections until it first catches up with the master, consuming all available WAL segments. If this never happens, it never starts accepting connections. I'm not sure if that's by design or not and if there's any reason it's that way. Perhaps someone more familiar with recovery can explain? -- Craig Ringer -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
