What is this local wal_archive directory?
From a previous post:
"LOG: archive command failed with exit code 1
DETAIL: The failed archive command was: test ! -f
/opt/postgres/remote_pgsql/wal_archive/00000001000000A800000078 && cp
pg_xlog/00000001000000A800000078
/opt/postgres/remote_pgsql/wal_archive/00000001000000A800000078
I see only /opt/postgres/remote_pgsql/wal_archive which I assumed was
the remote. I am not sure where the local one fits in?

So what did you do to get the database running again?
