Finally, I managed to get the awx 23.8.0 version running.

As the installation was running in a loop with the above error message, I exited the installation which led to all the containers to stop.
Then I restarted the containers and when I ran the command

docker exec tools_awx_1 make clean-ui ui-devel

Once it was completed, I was able to access the web UI will success.
