If pg_standby is used, standby_mode must be set to off. Otherwise, as you observed, the trigger file cannot promote the standby. In 9.0, pg_standby doesn't remove the trigger file automatically, so if you want that, you need to set recovery_end_command to the command which removes the trigger file.
