How to restore my backup to a different database? - sql-server

Question

I have a backup and I want it to restore it to a new
Database Wss_Content3
The backfile is a backup of the Wss_Content database.
When I run the following code:
USE Master;
GO
RESTORE DATABASE Wss_Content3 FROM DISK = 'f:\Fill_Wss_Content.bak'
WITH
MOVE 'Wss_Content3' TO 'E:\MSSQL\MSSQL11.SHP2013PROD\MSSQL\Data\Wss_Content3.mdf',
---------------------------------------^^^^^
MOVE 'Wss_Content3_log' TO 'F:\MSSQL\MSSQL11.SHP2013PROD\MSSQL\Data\Wss_Content3_log.ldf';
I get:
Msg 1834, Level 16, State 1, Line 3 The file
'E:\MSSQL\MSSQL11.SHP2013PROD\MSSQL\Data\WSS_Content.mdf' cannot be
overwritten. It is being used by database 'WSS_Content'. Msg 3156,
Level 16, State 4, Line 3 File 'WSS_Content' cannot be restored to
'E:\MSSQL\MSSQL11.SHP2013PROD\MSSQL\Data\WSS_Content.mdf'. Use WITH
MOVE to identify a valid location for the file. Msg 1834, Level 16,
State 1, Line 3 The file
'F:\MSSQL\MSSQL11.SHP2013PROD\MSSQL\Data\WSS_Content_log.ldf' cannot
be overwritten. It is being used by database 'WSS_Content'. Msg 3156,
Level 16, State 4, Line 3 File 'WSS_Content_log' cannot be restored to
'F:\MSSQL\MSSQL11.SHP2013PROD\MSSQL\Data\WSS_Content_log.ldf'. Use
WITH MOVE to identify a valid location for the file. Msg 3119, Level
16, State 1, Line 3 Problems were identified while planning for the
RESTORE statement. Previous messages provide details. Msg 3013, Level
16, State 1, Line 3 RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
It's like to restore on the database Wss_Content but I want to do it on a new database Wss_Content3.
How can I do it?
EDIT:
With:
USE Master;
GO
RESTORE DATABASE Wss_Content3 FROM DISK = 'f:\Fill_Wss_Content.bak'
WITH
MOVE 'Wss_Content' TO 'E:\MSSQL\MSSQL11.SHP2013PROD\MSSQL\Data\Wss_Content3.mdf',
---------------------------------------^^^^^
MOVE 'Wss_Content_log' TO 'F:\MSSQL\MSSQL11.SHP2013PROD\MSSQL\Data\Wss_Content3_log.ldf';
I get:
Msg 3154, Level 16, State 4, Line 2
The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'Wss_Content3' database.
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
EDIT2:
USE Master;
GO
RESTORE FILELISTONLY FROM DISK = 'f:\Fill_Wss_Content.bak'
WSS_Content E:\MSSQL\MSSQL11.SHP2013PROD\MSSQL\Data\WSS_Content.mdf D PRIMARY 163158360064 35184372080640 1 0 0 140B6DD4-DCA0-4FD8-BA65-59390D5FC3B5 0 0 162484191232 512 1 NULL 133075000000938400215 F50C4B9C-B575-4158-B5D6-F44B92FE0380 0 1 NULL

EDIT3:
I've tried this (with Wss_Content5.mdf and Wss_Content5_log.ldf
) non existing:
RESTORE DATABASE Wss_Content3 FROM DISK = 'f:\Fill_Wss_Content.bak'
WITH
MOVE 'Wss_Content' TO 'E:\MSSQL\MSSQL11.SHP2013PROD\MSSQL\Data\Wss_Content5.mdf',
---------------------------------------^^^^^
MOVE 'Wss_Content_log' TO 'F:\MSSQL\MSSQL11.SHP2013PROD\MSSQL\Data\Wss_Content5_log.ldf
Unfortunately I get this error:
Msg 3154, Level 16, State 4, Line 5
The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'Wss_Content3' database.
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 5
RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.

Answer 1

You need to use the following option:
WITH REPLACE
If you're using the wizard from SQL Management Studio to restore the database rather than the command line, there is a corresponding option that needs to be checked: "Overwrite the existing database (WITH REPLACE)"
