Thank you for your quick response. It was my oversight.
It worked.

In earlier version of primary connection information was enclosed within
one single quote:
primary_conninfo = 'user=postgres host=localhost port=5432'

But, the file created with -R option (recovery.conf) has doubled the single
quotes for all variable values user/host/port/sslmode/sslcompression in
primary connection.

standby_mode = 'on'
primary_conninfo = 'user=''postgres'' host=''localhost'' port=''5555''
sslmode=''disable'' sslcompression=''1'' '

Was it intentional to double the singe quotes of variable values ?
