Have you tried running ./craft setup to double check if your setup is correct?

If ./craft setup completes successfully ./craft should find the existing installation and complete any required setup.

In my experience, this is usually related to a non-default /config/db.php or problematic .env file.

Note: Always do a backup before trying anything related to setup just to be on the safe side.
