Wordpress database returns error 500

I have upgraded wordpress to latest version 4.2. Wordpress got updated successfully, website is visible. But when i access mywebsite.com/wp-admin It asks me to update to the newest wordpress database, I click that update button and after a while it returns error 500 Internal Server Error.

I tried to rename plugin folder/ my theme as well but to no avail.

Please help me resolve this issue.

Thank you very much,

This was an extremely tricky one! I had to enter PhpMyAdmin and update manually the db_version in wp_options (http://prntscr.com/6yqm5l) with the version number from the latest wordpress download package (http://prntscr.com/6yqnew)

I hope this will help others who ever encounter this issue.

Thank you,
