    Hello Friends, I have a doubt. I have developed a web application. I have 3 servers to handle the requests for web page, IIS server, Apache server and a database server. My question is, how can i know which server is handling my request or will handle my request for a particular web page? Thanks and Regards, Nagendra.

    You have three different servers ? Or they all have IIS, Apache and a database installed ? How are they configured ?

        I'm sorry, you failed the job interview, by a long shot. You showed them that you have no idea how web development works. The database server will not handle any web requests. The Apache server cannot handle ASP.NET requests. The IIS server will therefore handle all ASP.NET pages.

            It should be only IIS.

              I know that database server can't handle web requests but i was confused with IIS and Apache web server. :( Can anyone tell me why Apache can't handle it?

                Because it can't. Why can't Word do your taxes ? Because the people who wrote it, decided not to add that functionality.

                        Apache is a web server,it will handle requests only following HTTP protocol.

                            That will not work with latest versions of ASP.NET.
