Typo3 9.5 backend locked after changing password in phpmyadmin

My Hoster installed Typo3 9.5 for me with composer. I did the setup of typo3 but went on holidays a week afterwards and could not remind the password. So I changed the password in phpmyadmin but still can’t login. It says: Oops, an error occurred. I tried to find out the error and it told me that there must be a problem with the password hashing. I can’t find the problem because the php version 7.3. has the correct hashing activated automatically in my opinion.

I can’t use the front end login and no install tool can be activated with the ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL command. So I can’t work and tried to find a solution for two days now. My hoster won’t help with that problem.

Is there anyone who maybe had the same problem? I had to admit that I’m not a developer with much experience… Thanks a lot if anybody could give me an advice!

    Create an (empty) file named ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL in typo3conf/ with permission that webserver at least can read it.
    Then call domain.tld/typo3/install.
    Try a password and save the returned hash in typo3conf/LocalConfiguration.php.

    When you are logged in in the install tool, you can create a new admin user for TYPO3 backend.

    If you have forgotten the Install tool password, you can reset it by modifying [your_site]/typo3conf/LocalConfiguration.php on the Typo3 server. Replace the $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['BE']['installToolPassword'] row with the following:

    $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['BE']['installToolPassword'] = 'bacb98acf97e0b6112b1d1b650b84971';

    This will give you the default password (“joh316“) back again.
