Hi Guys, I'm trying to set up a warm standby server, but have problems with running it on the backup. I feel that I have done like the documentation says: The WAL is being copied to the slave using rsync. Doing SELECT pg_start_backup(); (in psql) Copying the data directory to the slave (using rsync) Doing SELECT pg_stop_backup(); (in psql) Making sure the slave is using it's own postgresql.conf and the recovery.conf is set with the pg_standby command. . So far I don't get any errors, but when I start postgres on the slave (I'm using pg_ctl), I get the error 'FATAL: incorrect checksum in control file'. Both servers are running PostgreSQL-8.3.5, configured with exactly the same options (just prefix and ssl). Any ideas ?
