Did you rsync the master filesystem (after issuing pg_start_backup()) or use pg_basebackup, or did you literally take a pg_dump of the master and try to turn that backup into a slave? If the latter, you will need to use the rsync/pg_basebackup method. There are some reasonably thorough steps at http://dba.stackexchange.com/a/53546/24393 if you want to compare them against what you tried already.
