Table 'wp_users' already exists - database

Question

Was working on a site offline and suddenly mysql port clash error came then I had to work on it solution for many hours but no luck. So I took the theme files and database manually from xampp and pasted them into a different computer system with a fresh xampp installed on it. This error is coming now which I have shared above.

Answer 1

That means your tables already exist.
Try dropping them before running your SQL queries.
Or
use CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS instead of just CREATE TABLE in your queries.

Answer 2

when you download wordpress it suggests to use wp_ as a prefix for your tables. but you cant have 2 tables with the same name online.
what you have to do is during the wp installation is to change the prefix to something other than wp_.
i had this problem myself when i made some projects in wp and had to upload them online and since the tables have the same names you cant have them in the same database/folder. simply just make sure to always give your project a unique prefix to avoid problems like this.
