Hello Prabahar,

It entirely depends on the mechanism you are using to receive the file
(there is no generic solution).

Is it within a CGI ? The normal way would be to check the file sized
and discard if it's too big. You'll have to do it within your code -
but it's probably a one line check !

Best Regards,

Unlike PHP, Python is a general-purpose language that is not targetted
specifically at the web, so it has no native concept of "uploading".

You can do this by using the LimitRequestBody directive in your Apache
configuration or .htaccess file.
