Local site from backup

I am trying to create a local version of our site from a manual backup.

The backup was created by making a copy of the live site’s public_html foldder via ftp, and exporting a zipped copy of the sql database via phpMyAdmin (through the host’s site admin pages).

I’ve set up WAMP and WP locally as per the WPBeginner guide.

When I try to import the backup sql databast to the local site using phpMyAdmin, I get error mesages about tables that already exist.

Error

SQL query:

—
— Database: web156-a-wo-709

— Table structure for table wp_afap_logs

CREATE TABLE wp_afap_logs (
log_id int(11) NOT NULL,
post_id int(11) NOT NULL,
log_status int(11) NOT NULL,
log_time varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
log_details text
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8
