What is the version of Postgres you are using?

A restart point is created each time a standby server shuts down
during WAL replay. It seems that you stopped it for a too long time,
and that WAL files that this server expected to find are done because
it was out of sight for a too long time. Then, when a standby starts
and enters in recovery, it tries first to recover necessary WAL files
from the archives with restore_command and then switches to streaming
mode if it cannot find what is necessary. Are you sure that you kept
enough WAL history in your archives and that restore_command is
pointing to the right path/host?
