replaced -c with -l, but the result was the same.
I assume that with -k you mean the socket dir for postgres - since
pg_standby doesn't
seek to recognize that switch - but I didn't need it: I connected to -p
5433.
Anyway, after having stopped the replication I had the same problem;
in order to make the slave start I had to manually copy the log files
from the
archive to pg_xlog/ .
Is pg_standby supposed to work with Postgres 8.2 ? or only with 8.1.?
