How can I handle file upload errors in Django?

In Django, you can handle file upload errors by using try-except blocks in your view functions. This allows you to catch exceptions like FileNotFoundError or ValidationError.

What specific exceptions should I look out for?

You should look out for exceptions such as ValidationError, SuspiciousFileOperation, and FileNotFoundError. Each of these can indicate different issues with the file upload.

Can you give me an example of how to implement this?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

from django.core.exceptions import ValidationError
from django.http import HttpResponse

def upload_file(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        try:
            uploaded_file = request.FILES['file']
            # Process the file
        except ValidationError:
            return HttpResponse('Invalid file format.')
        except FileNotFoundError:
            return HttpResponse('File not found.')
    return HttpResponse('Upload a file.')
