I haven't said anything because I have been too busy and also because this topic has been covered before on the mailing list and it is in the archives. The only trick is working out the right search terms to find the answer. To save you the trouble: http://www.modpython.org/pipermail/mod_python/2006-April/020867.html Also see: http://www.modpython.org/pipermail/mod_python/2006-July/021610.html Ie. you can always just use Apache LimitRequestBody directive. And: http://www.modpython.org/pipermail/mod_python/2006-July/021611.html Ie., used for fixuphandler approach, don't use HTTP_BAD_REQUEST, but HTTP_REQUEST_ENTITY_TOO_LARGE. Also see comments about length being required. I don't know why the person was having problems, as it should be possible to do it in a fixuphandler as described. Graham
