Hello @masarah_fas 

Kindly set writable permission to your VAR directory, then error gets resolved !

cd <your Magento install dir> 
find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;                        // 644 permission for files
find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;                        // 755 permission for directory 
find ./var -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \;                // 777 permission for var folder    
find ./pub/media -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \;
find ./pub/static -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \;
chmod 777 ./app/etc
chmod 644 ./app/etc/*.xml
chown -R :<web server group> .
chmod u+x bin/magento

Never set 777, Never.

There can be another solution.
If you had run:
`$ chmod -R 777 var pub generated`

and nothing was happen (still 500 error on website access)

Then, restart the container (docker has a button for that).
Enjoy!
