If you still have the backup, you could use non-Rivendell tools to drop the
Rivendell database.

At that point, if a correct database is indeed the problem, you should be
able to run rdadmin which will, iirc, create a blank Rivendell db. The run
the restore again.

If that seems too dangerous, you could bring up a new (virtual) machine
quickly and run a restore on that. Perhaps the backup is bad...???

all the best,
