Setting Up Firebird Database with Django

Based on the errors you're encountering, there are a few issues with your Firebird database configuration in Django. Let me help you correct them.

The Main Issue

Firebird is not an officially supported database in Django. It's a third-party backend, which means you need to install a specific package to use it with Django.

Solution Steps

1. Install the correct package:
   You need to install the django-firebird package:

   BASHCopied
   pip install django-firebird

2. Correct your database configuration:
   The engine name in your settings is incorrect. For third-party backends, you need to use the full path provided by the package:

   PYTHONCopied
   DATABASES = {
       'default': {
           'ENGINE': 'firebird',  # Not 'django.db.backends.firebird'
           'NAME': 'C:/Projects/data/database.fdb',
           'USER': 'SYSDBA',
           'PASSWORD': 'masterkey',
           'HOST': '127.0.0.1',
           'PORT': '3050'
       }
   }

3. Check compatibility:
   Make sure the version of django-firebird you're using is compatible with your Django version. The third-party backends vary considerably in their support for different Django versions and ORM features.

Additional Notes

• The error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'django.utils.asyncio' suggests you might be using an older version of the package that's not compatible with your Django version.

• If you continue to have issues, you might want to check the official PyPI page for django-firebird: https://pypi.org/project/django-firebird/ for specific installation instructions or version requirements.

• For specific capabilities and support queries related to the Firebird backend, you should refer to the support channels provided by the django-firebird project.

Remember that third-party database backends may not support all Django ORM features, so you might encounter limitations depending on your project requirements.
