@Deep Are you using Virtual Box? its old error, try to update erpnext using bench update command.
After that, you need to reinstall site using bench reinstall command

@Deep Hi you can not install erpnext once you complete setting up setup wizard
for that you have to do bench reinstall as suggested by @kolate_sambhaji and then you should use bench install-app erpnext for installing erpnext.

@Deep as suggested by @ravindra_l
You need to reinstall site.
Also, you can create new site and install erpnext using follwoing command(Instead of UI)
bench new-site mysite.local
bench --site mysite.local install-app erpnext

@Deep,
Did you reinstalled site?
Also, do you have changes in ERPNext APP?
You need to update ERPNext.

@Deep Don’t make any change in directly ERPNext app, you can use your own app to add customization in ERPNext.
It will help you to easily update ERPNext to latest version
