I finally found what was the problem.

Thanks go to @bwidyasanyata and [Enable Automatic Certificate Generation is fail on Maple after Lilac upgrade - #6 by bwidyasanyata](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/enable-automatic-certificate-generation-is-fail-on-maple-after-lilac-upgrade/6393/6)

Unfortunately that causes a much bigger challenge if what he writes is true about courses created before Maple.

I confirm that even importing an old course created before Maple doesn’t work.

How do we handle courses that have been existing for a while, for example on Koa in Native, when we will switch to Tutor and Maple? We have long running courses that deliver certificates either auto-generated or at the end. Is there a migration command we need to run? We can’t assume a course will end before our move to Tutor. That would be a logistic nightmare…
