A disabled service will never run nor leave error messages anywhere

Right click on the Postgresql service, select properties.
In the next window, choose startup type (the combo under the executable 
path) and select Automatic, then click on the Start button below
Click OK and close the window.

Now something should happen. If everything goes well, You'll see 
"Started" and "Automatic" in the two columns next to the service 
description, and you can start your application
If there is an error message, then it should log something. See my last 
mail to extract log informations and post them here

You got no helpful info because service does not start, andd so does not 
log.... :-)

ATM there's a service start issue to be resolved, if there's also 
something about the firewall, we'll think about it later.
