CMK version: OMD - Open Monitoring Distribution Version 2.4.0p8.cee
OS version: Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)

Error message:

I’ve added a prometheus rule in 2.4.0p3 and since upgrading to 2.4.0p8 I now get the following critical error: [special_prometheus] agent_prometheus: error: the following arguments are required: --config

I have no idea where or what the --config argument is about.

Testing the connection results in:

Agent exited with code 2: usage: agent_prometheus [-h] [--debug] --config CONFIG
[--disable-cert-verification | --cert-server-name CERT_SERVER_NAME]
AUTH-METHOD ...
agent_prometheus: error: the following arguments are required: --config

Things were working fine in 2.4.0p3 before the upgrade to 2.4.0p8.
