I am developing a Meteor application on Windows. Are there log files being stored somewhere? Where are they?
To be more specific, I am running the development server on my local pc. I need to see any logs being created by the server. I need to know where they are stored.
I don't think they are stored in files. You need to handle logging in your code and also look for meteor process STDOUT/STDERR.
Perhaps you can take a look at this project for a solution/inspiration:

I have just started developing a Golang app, and have deployed it on Google App Engine. But, when I try to connect my local server to CloudSQL instance through proxy, I am able to connect only through TCP.
However, when connecting with the same CloudSQL instance in AppEngine, I am able to connect only through UNIX.
To cope with this, I have made changes in my local environment handler file, so that it can adapt to local and GCloud config, but I'm not sure how I can skip the update on just this file for GCloud? Again, I don't want AppEngine to delete this file, I just want the CLI to avoid uploading the new version of the handler file.
I use this command for deploying: gcloud app deploy
Currently, I deploy directly to AppEngine, instead of pushing it through VCS. Also, if there is an option to detect if the app is running on AppEngine, then it'd be really great.
TIA
Got it, in case anyone gets stuck in such situation, we can make use of environment variables set in GCloud AppEngine. Although there is documentation stating the environment variables, I would still give importance to checking the environment variables in Cloud Console.

I have a discord bot that saves JSON files on the same directory he is in so it could work on more than one server without colliding (he saves variables that are not important to the question) .
I finished my code and I uploaded it to heroku for hosting. The thing is , when I ran the code from my pc I could see the files that were being created for each server for testing but now I don't know how to reach them.
Is there a way to check all the files I have in heroku?
(when I mean all, I mean also the JSON files that were created from the bot itself)
side not:
You can do heroku run bash -a APPNAME but it still doesn't let me see the files that were made in the dyno or directory.
On top of that, if someone has another good hosting site(preferred free) which doesn't use a ephemeral filesystem, that would be great if you can comment them down bellow.
(or if you have a way to save the files before the dyno deletes them)
What you are searching for in Heroku is called Heroku Exec (SSH Tunneling) which you can use to SSH into running dynos for debugging purposes.
I'd like to create a simple web application to manage some data. The application will use PostgreSQL but I have no idea how to package everything in order to make it run on windows, linux, and mac. I can cross-compile a go binary which will include everything (web server, etc..) but the postgresql database will be left out because that's running as a separate server locally. I heard about docker but I don't know if that's the right solution.
Should I create a docker container and include PostgreSQL in it so I can start that web app on any platform?
You don't need Docker to do this.
It complicates things since your users will have to install the Docker engine first. Go is perfectly capable for cross platform applications, batteries included.
Decide if you want your app to run in a browser tab or should it have it's own window?
For a browser tab compile your app for the target architecture and think about a URL scheme that will make sense to your users, for example
localhost:8080/app => the user interface. This route is the web app, it serves HTML, JS and CSS. Tell your users to run the executable (or install it as a service, see this or use a platform specific tool like this one). Then open the link in a browser
localhost:8080/api => backend routes. Serves data to requests made by the user interface. For talking to the Postgres server running locally
If you want your app to run in it's own window have a look at Electron. See gotron: Go Api for Electron
If you want to use Docker for this, you have to create a platform-specific docker image containing the platform-specific binary in it. Once you have these images, you can use docker-compose to run your app with an instance of postgres running in its own container.
I wasn't able to find solid information on this and I wanted to ask developers who use Parse Dashboard:
What are the pros/cons of Parse Dashboard local installation vs deployment?
I currently run the Parse Dashboard on local installation, but I know that deployment to Heroku is also an option (my app is deployed on Heroku). I wanted to gather some information before deploying/not deploying.
Thank you!
I also have it running locally and I think for security reasons it's best to do so. If you setup the dashboard on the same server on which Parse is running, then you will have to take security measure to protect access to the dashboard and the config file which includes your masterkey and all that. This definitely outweighs the arguments to host it locally, which in my opinion only is that it's easier to access the dashboard.
If you really want to setup a dashboard on a server at least do it on a separate server.
I have a computer that is used for getting database information from the server in the same domain, and this computer is used by employees who don't have the server admin information.
When the computer restarts, I'd like it to automatically log in to Windows Server so that it can access the database files. Is it possible to write a script for this that runs on boot?
Thanks in advance
I solved this by adding the credentials to the Credentials Manager in Windows, along with disabling the Windows Server dashboard program. This makes Windows automatically log in to the server with the stored credentials on boot.
Since your question really isn't specific, I'd like to suggest two ways of accomplishing your goal.
Since you'd like to access database information, why not use some kind of database management software (like SSMS if you're using MSSQL) and set up proper permissions for the user/computer that will need to obtain information from that particular server/database.
If you need access to raw files (which doesn't make much sense in case of MSSQL for accessing purposes), why not set up proper permissions on the file or parent folder, giving the user that is logged to the client PC proper permissions to access the files that are of interest.
