HTTP Error 500 /admin page only , after the update

This is the 3rd time I try to update my friendica instance to the latest version, but I have some problem HTTP error 500 only when I try to connect to the admin page /admin , for other things the website works .

I honestly had this problem in the past during the update, but I don't remember how I solved it, maybe I asked for help on this forum, but I didn't find any post regarding this problem .

Thanks in advance

I update my installation via git , what I did is

git clone https://github.com/friendica/friendica.git -b stable friendicanew
cd friendicanew
bin/composer.phar install --no-dev
mkdir -p view/smarty3

@Anomaly

as far as I can see, you don't make an update, you are creating a new installation with git clone.

An update on my system looks like this

Pull for stable (stable)

cd htdocs 
git pull https://github.com/friendica/friendica.git stable
bin/composer.phar install --no-dev
cd addon
git pull https://github.com/friendica/friendica-addons.git stable

I just updated friendica as you told me it works thanks , but I got some errors .

error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge:
I fixed it with the cmd git stash , and after
git pull https://github.com/friendica/friendica.git stable

you are creating a new installation with git clone.

Yes the method I was using was a fresh install of friendica, I did it a few times and had no problems, but the last 2 times I had HTTP Error 500 .

Thanks for your help,for now no problem it works

Cheers

Ah!!! I forgot the last command
php bin/console.php dbstructure update
I hope I did everything right
