Hi there, I'm trying to configure streaming replication between a Red Hat server running PostGreSQL 9.2.2 and a Debian server running PostGreSQL 9.2.24 with Hot Standby enabled.
While the base backup works fine using *pg_basebackup*, I get the following errors with hot standby enabled on the Debian slave when starting PostGreSQL: *WARNING: WAL was generated with wal_level=minimal, data may be missing* *HINT: This happens if you temporarily set wal_level=minimal without taking a new base backup.* *FATAL: hot standby is not possible because wal_level was not set to "hot_standby" on the master server* *HINT: Either set wal_level to "hot_standby" on the master, or turn off hot_standby here* If I turn Hot Standby off on the Debian Slave I get the following errors: *FATAL: database system identifier differs between the primary and standby* *DETAIL: The primary's identifier is 5940475598986796885, the standby's identifier is 6557962695089036503.* Configuring streaming replication with Hot Standby enabled locally on the Red Hat server works like a charm, and I've thus concluded that the issues must be one of the following: - PostGreSQL's minor version differs between the 2 servers - The two servers are running different operating systems Any insight or guidance as to achieve this scenario would be greatly appreciated.
