Reinstall MacOS Ventura error everytime

I forgot the password to my Macbook, following tutorials I erased the Macintosh HD volume, however when trying to reinstall Ventura, an error appears all the time "An error occured while preparing the installation. Try running this application again."


Please refer to installation log and advise.

Managed to solve this issue by downloading MacOS Monterey 12.7.6 from an old Macbook Air 2015, then following instructions from here Create a bootable installer for macOS - Apple Support to clone installation file to a 32GB USB drive.
