I am running Postgres 9.1
I have followed the howto here:

I am attempting to replicate an existing database.
On the Master, I get the following error in the postgres log file:
FATAL: must be replication role to start walsender
On the slave I get this:
FATAL: could not connect to the primary server: FATAL: must be replication
role to start walsender
I have googled both of those log entries to no avail.
note that the sender process on the master is not running.
What simple step am I missing?
What have you got primary_conninfo set to on the standby in
recovery.conf? Are you trying to use a regular user? If so, you will
have to grant it REPLICATION permissions on the primary, which was
introduced in 9.1.
The primary_conninfo in the recovery.conf is set to :
primary_conninfo = 'host=192.168.127.12 port=5432 user=postgres'
So I should just have to grant the postgres user REPLICATION
permissions, and be good?
