My mistake, I should have been more specific.
What is in your recovery.conf file on the standby?
Is the standby something you really want to try to rescue at this point
or would it be feasible just to start over?
If you do decide to start over a little time spent on what you want to
happen would help out.
Options to look at:
1) Streaming replication. WAL files are streamed from master to standby.
2) Hot standby. The standby can process read only queries while in
standby mode.
3) Archiving. WAL files are archived in a location for possible use by
standby. Needs some mechanism to prune files or you could fill a disk again.
All 3 of the above can be combined if desired, which is where the
thinking time part comes in.
