Question

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS message(
  id INT NOT NULL auto_increment,
  userid INT NOT NULL,
  date Date NOT NULL,
  text varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY  ('id')
  FOREIGN KEY ('userid') REFERENCES users('id'));

I was just wondering if someone could help me in identifying a syntax error as I can not create a table.

Answer 1

Try to put , after the primary key declaration.

Update: I guess it should be

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS message (
  id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
  userid INT NOT NULL,
  date Date NOT NULL,
  text varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  FOREIGN KEY (userid) REFERENCES users(id));
