Going from 9.4 to 9.6 is a major version upgrade and you cannot use
pg_basebackup for that. Besides I can't see how you even got the 9.6.3
server to start:
/usr/local/pgsql94/bin/pg_basebackup -D /home/aklaver/pgback_test94 -U
postgres -p 5412 -v --xlog-method=stream
/usr/local/pgsql96/bin/pg_ctl -D /home/aklaver/pgback_test94/ start
server starting
FATAL: database files are incompatible with server

which is not compatible with this version 9.6.3

Given the above how did you actually get 9.6.3 to start?
