I am having a problem in restoring from WAL files. I have restored from a dump file and trying to step through the WAL files.

 

LOG:  starting archive recovery

LOG:  restore_command = "cp /home/backup/%f "%p""

LOG:  restored log file "00000001.history" from archive

PANIC:  syntax error in history file: START WAL LOCATION: 2/5DC04228 (file 00000001000000020000005D)

 

HINT:  Expected a numeric timeline ID.

LOG:  startup process (PID 8325) was terminated by signal 6

LOG:  aborting startup due to startup process failure

...........................................................could not start postmaster

Please send the history file, plus give your best understanding of the
previous history of this database's crashes/recoveries.

AFAICS the .history contains the same contents as a normal .backup file
would. Which is a little strange, so its either a definite bug or you're
manually editing/manipulating file contents, which is unlikely to
succeed.
