Issue creating ssl certificate in nginx proxy manager

My domain is:
duckulus.ddnss.de

I ran this command:
I created an ssl certificate for the subdomain portainer.duckulus.ddnss.de, when I ran the server
reachability test it was successful but when I tried adding the certificate it threw an error. When adding a certificate for the domain without subdomain it works fine

It produced this output:

Error: Command failed: certbot certonly --config "/etc/letsencrypt.ini" --cert-name "npm-16" --agree-tos --authenticator webroot --email "amin.haddou@outlook.de" --preferred-challenges "dns,http" --domains "portainer.duckulus.ddnss.de"

My web server is (include version):
Nginx Proxy Manager installed using docker-compose
Image: jc21/nginx-proxy-manager:latest

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version):
Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye) aarch64 running on Raspberry Pi 4

I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don't know):
yes

I'm using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel):
yes, Nginx Proxy Manager

Content of the letsencrypt logfile:

5 per hour per host. Just wait. You can use the staging environment if you have experiments to make. Just add --staging to your command (the certificate you get will not be valid)

Also, "certbot certonly" ISSUES a certificate, doesn't INSTALL it.
