It looks to me like you've gotten confused about which installation is
the original and which is the attempted recovery.  This log message:

> LOG:  database system was shut down at 2007-02-15

should certainly not appear if you were starting a postmaster in a
database tree that had been copied from a live installation.  Also,
the next line ought to be "starting archive recovery"; since it's
not, that means the postmaster didn't see a recovery.conf file.
