As written in the messages.

Despite the master had removed some rows by vacuum and that must be
reflected to your standby, the standby cannot do that because of the
transaction that has started before the rows are vacuumed. More
technically, the transaction on the standby was using a snapshot with
older transaction ids than the vacuum cutoff transaction id on the
master. So the standby needed to cancel the the statement or session
in order to continue replication.

Hot-standby-feedback would work.
