setting up postgres replication FATAL: database system identifier differs between the primary and standby

Ahoy there,

I am attempting to set up postgres12 with replication between two servers.

I followed these instructions.


https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-physical-streaming-replication-with-postgresql-12-on-ubuntu-20-04

At step 4 - I restarted the replica database with command "sudo 
systemctl restart postgresql@12-main"

I see these messages in the /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-12-main.log file

Is there an easy way to solve this problem?
