It's perhaps this file ? 

 

Yes, that's the event log. Note the entries in it that say things like:

Couldn't create connection: fe_sendauth: no password supplied 

In other words, pgAgent cannot connect to your database. Try configuring a pgpass.txt file with the appropriate password in it, per the documentation at:

http://www.pgadmin.org/docs/1.4/pgagent-install.html

(in particular, the Security Concerns section at the bottom).
