Hello Ankit,

This is a strange behaviour that you are experiencing. Can you tell me exactly how did you alter the name of the database, because I think the problem may be coming from the actual action, because if you just changed the initial catalog string of the Data.config and the database name you should not be experiencing such errors.

Hello Victor,

Thanks a lot for your reply.
I alter the name of database using SQL Command "ALTER DATABASE OldName MODIFY NAME = NewName". and then changed the database name in the Dataconfig file. One more modification done by me. I changed the Path of Sitefinity Application in Project Manager by removing the Previous Project and by using Import option from Project Manager i reloaded the Application. Now we are not able to run the Application on localhost it gives Message like: "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" but we are able to open the Sitefinity Backend and in backend we are not able to open the content of Pages and Templates that we have already registered there shows the same error message: "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage". .

Hello Ankit,

Have you tried opening and running the project using Visual Studio, because the project manager might have messed up the paths of where the project is located. The renaming command looks ok, and should not be related to the issue, however if you have a database backup, I would suggest to rename the database using the UI of the SQL management studio instead of running commands.
