Tried to create an ssl certificate with cloudflare dns challenge but I get a internal error.

I'm also encountering this error and just came here searching for it. Have you found any way to create a wildcard cert from within the GUI?

I deleted the volumes and reinstalled the nginx proxy. After that I was again able to create a cert.

I figured it out, this isn't a bug, it was (at least in my case) due to the Cloudflare "Credentials File Content" being malformed. I had accidentally formatted it as one line and thus it was just a single commented out line like this:

# Cloudflare API token dns_cloudflare_api_token = 0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef01234567

When it should look like this:

# Cloudflare API token 
dns_cloudflare_api_token = 0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef01234567

or a single line like this:
dns_cloudflare_api_token = 0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef01234567
