The Webserver is fresh installation with latest update and upgrade.
After installing the pre-requisites, I started the installation and filled in the basic details and database connections.

But, when I proceed with Joomla installation, I am getting the A Database error occurred.

are you sure you used the right name for the database connection? It's probably NOT localhost. Thats what typically causes this.

It was my bad.
I realised that the error shown is different from the actual error.
I digged in the errors reported in the browser developer tools.
The main error was relating to the CORS.
When I changed the name of my site based on the url, it proceeded smoothly and I completed my installation.
Thanks for the support.

This is basic installation error.
No logs available, hence no code attached.
