The meaning is basically the same. You can use either.

They are both correct and equivalent. Yes, "by" is the correct preposition.

There is no difference in meaning but "upon" is the better choice. "Upon" means on from above. "On" means the same thing, but "from above" makes it more descriptive. It is more clear and emphatic.
