Well, you didn't show this script. Is it perhaps directly messing
with the *.ready files instead of leaving them to PostgreSQL to
manage? If it's doing one thing wrong (i.e., using a nonzero exit
code after copying to the archive directory) perhaps it's doing
something else wrong (like removing the copied WAL file or messing
with the *.ready files). If you mess with internals that you
shouldn't be touching, you can expect weird.
Perhaps the script was initially only getting one of these things
wrong and it was causing failures, so the author went further down
the rabbit hole in an attempt to get it sorta working?
