Barry,

I'm also having a MemoryError on line:

   File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/ 
python2.4/site-packages/mod_python/util.py", line 175, in __init__
     self.read_to_boundary(req, boundary, file)

   File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/ 
python2.4/site-packages/mod_python/util.py", line 206, in  
read_to_boundary
     sline = line.strip()

MemoryError


The file that is uploaded is 550MB.

BTW, the Content-Disposition header has a filename attribute.

What is the status with the changes that you mention on doing?

My web application must be able to support attachments of arbitrary  
size.

Any comments?
