try link mode, not copy mode (-l). make sure you read about the -k switch.

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.?


update: touching the right trigger makes the replication stop, thus I can connect to the server
and see the updated data.
Thanks a lot,
