What am I doing wrong here?

Challenge Task 1 of 1:

We're starting a rock collectors club! Can you create a 'members' table with the following columns: id, first_name, last_name, and favorite_rock. Also, make sure we only allow unique ids.

CREATE members (
    id PRIMARY KEY, 
    first_name, 
    last_name, 
    favorite_rock
  );

The command is

CREATE TABLE <table_name> (
columns...
);

As Morgan pointed out, you're missing the keyword "TABLE". But even after fixing it you may still have trouble.

I've seen four other questions about the same issue in the last day so I suspect something has gone wrong with the validation mechanism.

You might want to report that to the Support folks.
