Postgresql replication assistance

Hi All,

Hope you can assist and that I am posting to the right forum.

We currently have multiple Postgresql 9 instances running with warm standby, and the replication work wonderfully.

The problem is the following, we take the slave database out of recovery and it works perfectly, but when we create a new database and setup streaming replication to point to this database it is read only and never "starts up".

"I created a test database and it did replicate across, but I could only see it once I removed recovery.conf and re-started obviously not in recovery anymore, I attached the logs at the bottom FYI" 

Is this even possible, to re-create a streaming database again from an ex slave database with a base backup and simply re-creating recovery.conf before startup?

Thank you,
Gustav

The database did not recover when we created a trigger file and I had to manually remove recovery.conf and restart the database before it started up and I was able to live queries again, obviously not in recovery anymore.
