Recovery problem with PostgreSQL
While running the recovery process I am getting the following errors for
cannot stat:
cp: cannot stat `/data1_node5/arch/00000001.history': No such file or
directory
cp: cannot stat

Any idea what can be causing these?

What makes you think this is an error? As pointed out in the docs,
the archive_recovery command *will* be asked for files that don't
exist. You might want to tweak your script to not report an error
in this case.

That should be true about `/data1_node5/arch/00000001.history' since there
may not be any timelines created by previous archiver recoveries
But the message
cp: cannot stat `/data1_node5/arch/000000010000000000000007''
suggests that it was not able to restore one of the log files while doing
the recovery So it can be treated as an error I guess due to missing log
file in the archive folder. That might be due to the archive command not
setup correctly and as a result it was not able to copy files from pg_xlog
to archive folder.
