Describe the bug
Trying to add a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate for home.mydomain.tld
as well as *.home.mydomain.tld
via DNS Challenge and Netcup as domain and DNS provider.
Adding a SSL cert using the GUI I receive below error
CommandError: usage:
certbot [SUBCOMMAND] [options] [-d DOMAIN] [-d DOMAIN] ...
Certbot can obtain and install HTTPS/TLS/SSL certificates. By default,
it will attempt to use a webserver both for obtaining and installing the
certificate.
certbot: error: unrecognized arguments: --dns-netcup-credentials /etc/letsencrypt/credentials/credentials-20 --dns-netcup-propagation-seconds 900

at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (node:internal/child_process:304:5)
However when running in CLI it just works. Takes forever because Netcup has slow DNS propagation but it works

These files will be updated when the certificate renews.
Certbot has set up a scheduled task to automatically renew this certificate in the background.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Go to SSL Certificates
- Click on Add SSL Cert -> pick Let's Encrypt
- Enter any domain
- Toggle Use DNS Challenge
- Chose Netcup as Domainprovider - you don't even need working credentials error occurs nonetheless
- See error
Operating System
Installed in a Proxmox LXC (Debian) using https://community-scripts.github.io/ProxmoxVE/scripts?id=nginxproxymanager
At this point I'm not sure if this is an issue with proxy manager or certbot but I need to start somewhere. Also seeing certbot in CLI works I suspect something amiss with the certbot call using the Netcup integration.
