How can we know at server side in apache that a GET or PUT request has

response code so that some script and/or tool at Server side can
delete/archive the file which have been retrieved by the client in some
specific folders?. Is there any industry standard for such file
acknowledgement.
If it were me, I'd just write a CGI script to do this... as for how you
know for certain that the client received the entire response, that's a
bit tricky. The http response code (even if it's 200 OK) doesn't tell you
what happened on the client end. The client never sends an
acknowledgement response code. Apache internally knows whether it
finished sending or not, but it's hard to get at that information except
by directly accessing the internal structures from a module. Perhaps the
easiest way is to have the client request some other URL after it gets the
full document (javascript redirect?), and have that second URL be your
acknowledgement and trigger to delete the file.
