While working on query optimization project, I encountered following error.

Msg 1807, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
Could not obtain exclusive lock on database ‘model’. Retry the operation later.
Msg 1802, Level 16, State 4, Line 1
CREATE DATABASE failed. Some file names listed could not be created. Check related errors.

The resolution of above problem is quick and easy.

Fix/Workaround/Solution:

Disconnect and Reconnect your SQL Server Management Studio’s session. Your error will go away.
