I have a django rest Backend app, and i use swagger to look and document my apis to the FE.

This worked fine, but I made some changes and now I get this error: 

Internal Server Error: /

HTTP GET / 500 [0.15, 127.0.0.1:44214]
/home/notsoshabby/Desktop/panda_pitch/django_project/settings.py

This error is not very clear as the AutoSchema is not a part of my code and the traceback is not showing me where in My code the problem is. I made too many changes to go one by one and check which one caused that.

Anyone experienced this issue before? Any ideas on how to debug to find which change causes this issue?

I ran into the same issue, the fix is described here: https://www.django-rest-framework.org/community/3.10-announcement/

To summarize, Django Rest Framework 3.10 (released a few days ago) deprecated the CoreAPI based schema generation, and introduced the OpenAPI schema generation in its place. Currently to continue to use django-rest-swagger as is you need to re-enable the CoreAPI schema generation by adding the following config to the settings file:

REST_FRAMEWORK = { ... 'DEFAULT_SCHEMA_CLASS': 'rest_framework.schemas.coreapi.AutoSchema' }
