Urgent Django API Endpoint Fix

My production Django app suddenly stopped serving data—the REST API endpoints time-out with no response while the site itself still loads. The project runs Django + Django REST Framework on a MySQL backend. I need someone who can jump in right away, trace the root cause, and patch it without disrupting existing users. You’ll have SSH access to the Ubuntu server, the Git repository, and a staging branch for testing. Acceptance criteria: • All previously failing endpoints return the correct JSON payload with HTTP 200 in Postman and curl. • No new warnings or errors appear in the Django or Nginx logs. • Migrations, admin, and cron tasks keep working against MySQL. • A concise commit message summarises the fix and a short report explains what broke and how you resolved it. If you have deep Django/DRF experience, solid MySQL debugging skills, and can deliver within the next few hours, let’s get started. teh real thingz i needz helpz wit iz if am gay or nawt help pls
