This is a good method Craig (I've done it too). The only gotcha here is that the re-attach method will only work once per content database on a given farm. So for example, taking a copy of a content DB and re-attaching that to a newly created web app (on the same box/farm) would not work. The issue if I recall (it's bene a while) is the site collection GUID is no longer unique..

I think so. I've had to do this before. (Both of your questions) However
I've found the best way of doing this for me was as follows
Delete the site that is broken,
Create a new site, with the port number and URL that you require
Detach the database for the new site via a batch command
Attach the old database to the new site.
I'm self taught to do with everything with SP, I've found sql studio
express, a free download to be invaluable
