I find the quickest way to fix things from a move is to run install and at step 5 DON'T CREATE TABLES DON'T INSTALL DEFAULT CONTENT...

I had the same problem. I solved it by:
- Installing a copy of CMSMS on WAMP. (same as you use online)
- Backup you database online.
- Import your database to your //localhost MySQL
- When you install CMSMS on localhost, DON'T MAKE NEW DATABASE, BUT REFER IT TO THE COPY YOU INSTALLED ON LOCALHOST.
- Copy your uploads folder from online to your hard drive, replacing te one on your hard drive.
- Install modules you use online that don't come standard.
It worked for me.
