(env-FIR) www-data@toto:/opt/fir/FIR$ ./manage.py migrate --settings fir.config.production

If i remove fir_notification in fir/config/installed_apps.txt, manage.py commands work fine. I will try to find which dependancu is missing. Actually i have this packages installed (same as your install documentation, just change mysql to mariadb) :
mariadb-server default-libmysqlclient-dev gettext python3-dev python3-pip python3-lxml git libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev libz-dev nginx pkg-config python-is-python3 python3-virtualenv redis libsasl2-dev libldap2-dev

Hi
Good catch, thanks for reporting it.

This issue is django5 related.
I will push a fix, but if you encounter other issues related to django5 you can downgrade your django version like this:

sudo -u www-data bash
source /opt/fir/env-FIR/bin/activate
pip install 'django<5.0'
