From the error log:
FATAL: hot standby is not possible because wal_level was not
set to "hot_standby" or higher on the master server
HINT: Either set wal_level to "hot_standby" on the master, or
turn off hot_standby here.
I tried setting hot_standby to off, but that didn't help.
I set the wal_level to "hot_standby" and hot_standby to on, and now it
appears to have made progress.
The service starts up without failing.

No. No entries.
There is now an entry on the primary.
But still can't connect from Navicat on the primary server and the log says
FATAL: could not receive data from WAL stream: server closed the
connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
