Apache won't start after configuring phppgadmin

My XAMPP was working good. But after installing postgreSQL server and then configuring phppgadmin (following this link: http://w3guy.com/integrate-postgresql-database-xampp-windows/) my XAMPP's apache won't working. Looks like this below:

7:54:19 PM [main] Running with Administrator rights - good!
7:54:19 PM [main] XAMPP Installation Directory: "c:\xampp\"
7:54:19 PM [main] Checking for prerequisites
7:54:19 PM [main] All prerequisites found
7:54:19 PM [main] Initializing Modules
7:54:19 PM [mysql] XAMPP MySQL Service is already running on port 3306
7:54:19 PM [main] Starting Check-Timer
7:54:19 PM [main] Control Panel Ready
7:54:23 PM [Apache] Attempting to start Apache service...

It doesn't do anything after long time.
I am very frustrated as this problem needs to be solved urgently. Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance. With Regards.

Sorry, there is usefull information for me. I have no idea, where to look and what is going wrong.

BUT: Xampp is NOT mentioned to be expanded by a Postgres Installation, if you dont like the default Xampp installation and need other tools, you should not use Xampp. In this case, if anything is going wrong, you should ask on that site, which shows you how to "integrate" Postgres. There is no standard Postgres support from Xampp and therefore we cannot give any help about that. Either dont use Xampp or dont use Postgres, is all i can say to you.

Thanks much for your reply.

Actually I needed to use MySQL database alongside postgreSQL database at frequently as if it were convenience to create projects in the same directory (xampp/htdocs).
But Thanks god that at last I have solved the problem. Now I am capable of using my phpPgAdmin dashboard under XAMPP just like phpmyadmin dashboard.
You can guess that this is very useful if you can create projects in htdocs, both for mySQL and postgreSQL database. But in both cases, I will be using Apache.

I am not sure why you are discouraging me to use postgre with Xampp, while it is pretty convenient to handle mutiple projects of different database namely MySQL and postgreSQL.

Again, thanks for your time. :-)
