not sure what happened, but i cant get into the GUI after i installed an SSL cert. probably filled something out wrong.

i can SSH into the server fine, but how do i go about deleting the cert from the command line so i can get back to the GUI?

As you can see login page, or as much of it as possible for command line, is returned back, so its not a server side issue.
The solution posted earlier "thisisunsafe" has always worked for me. I'd recommend giving it another try.
Beyond that, try a different browser, incognito mode and/or repeat steps as outlined here https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Certificate_Management

Everything points to a client side caching issue.
