AUTOINCREMENT and order of arguments in INTEGER PRIMARY KEY - sqlite

In SQLite, the following works:
CREATE TABLE "b" (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT NOT NULL);
but the following throws an error:
CREATE TABLE "c" (id INTEGER AUTOINCREMENT PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL);
the error being:
Execution finished with errors.
Result: near "AUTOINCREMENT": syntax error
At line 6:
CREATE TABLE "c" (id INTEGER AUTOINCREMENT
Why changing the order of the arguments throws a syntax error?

As specified in the docs, in SQLite AUTOINCREMENT must go after PRIMARY KEY.

Can't figure out how to create exchange rate tables

These are two commands I try to execute to create a pair or tables related to exchange rates.
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS Currencies(
numeric_code integer NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
code text NOT NULL UNIQUE
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ExchangeRates(
id integer NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
numeric_code integer NOT NULL,
exchange_rate real NO NULL,
date_from date NOT NULL,
FOREIGN KEY (numeric_code) REFERENCES Currencies(numeric_code)
I get the error: SQLITE_ERROR: incomplete input errno: 1, code: 'SQLITE_ERROR'
What is wrong? I am not good at SQL queries.

Can not add a second foreign key when creating table

I am creating a table with 2 foreign keys
but whenever I have the second key, it will return an error:
CREATE TABLE reviews(
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
stars INT,
business_id INT,
FOREIGN KEY(business_id) REFERENCES businesses(id),
user_id INT,
FOREIGN KEY (user_id) REFERENCES users(id)
);
It will throw syntax error near user_id, and if I put business_id after user_id, it will throw syntax error near business_id...
And if I only put one foreign key there, it will just create the table, tried several times. What's the problem here?
users and businesses are two tables, I'm creating a junction table for them.
Don't mix column definition with constraint definition. Columns first, constraints after:
CREATE TABLE reviews(
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
stars INT,
business_id INT,
user_id INT,
FOREIGN KEY(business_id) REFERENCES businesses(id),
FOREIGN KEY (user_id) REFERENCES users(id)
);

Primary key does not allow unique replace functionality

CREATE TABLE resource_sync
(
_id INTEGER UNIQUE ON CONFLICT REPLACE PRIMARY KEY,
status_id INTEGER,
result_id INTEGER
);
In case two equal _id values get inserted, SQLite would throw an exception:
[13:39:48] Error while executing SQL query on database 'test': UNIQUE
constraint failed: resource_sync._id
However, it allows for desired replaces in case primary key declaration is removed from table creation SQL.
Why is that?
Thanks.
UNIQUE is ignored on primary keys.
The correct syntax, as shown in the documentation, is:
CREATE TABLE resource_sync
(
_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY ON CONFLICT REPLACE,
status_id INTEGER,
result_id INTEGER
);

Abort due to constraint violation columns C1,C2,C3 are not unique

I have a composite primary key(C1+C2+C3)on a table.
Here is the DDL
CREATE TABLE "InputFiles" (
[PlantID] INTEGER,
[FileID] INTEGER,
[VesselDataCase] CHAR(9),
[Comments] CHAR(73),
Primary key([PlantID], [FileID]),
FOREIGN KEY(PlantId) REFERENCES Plant(PlantId) ON DELETE CASCADE);
CREATE TABLE [VesselData] (
[MaterialType] NVARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
[Operating_Temperature] NUMERIC,
[IRTndt] numeric,
[VDID] integer,
[PlantId] integer,
[FileId] integer,
FOREIGN KEY([plantid], [fileid]) REFERENCES [inputfiles]([plantid], [fileid]) ON DELETE cascade,
CONSTRAINT [sqlite_autoindex_VesselData_1] PRIMARY KEY ([VDID], [PlantId], [FileId]));
When I try to insert a new row in VesselData Table
Suppose VDID = 1, Fileid = 2, Plantid = 3. So it looks for(1+2+3) combination.
Even though fields with these values dont exist in the Table, it gives me
Abort due to constraint violation
columns VDID, PlantId, FileId are not unique SQlite exception
But, it is inserting the field in the table. After inserting this field it gives me this exception. Either it shouldn't insert or abort due to invalid field values
Thank you

What's wrong with this query?

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS fw_users (id INT(64) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, auth CHAR(64) UNIQUE, money INT(32) DEFAULT '0', unlocks VARCHAR(8000))
I can't see any error in it, but SQLite throws an error:
Query failed! AUTOINCREMENT is only allowed on an INTEGER PRIMARY KEY
It doesn't make sense, id IS an integer
INT(64) isn't close enough; it must be INTEGER.
The SQLite notation is INTEGER PRIMARY KEY. Docs reference:
If you declare a column of a table to be INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, then whenever you insert a NULL into that column of the table, the NULL is automatically converted into an integer which is one greater than the largest value of that column over all other rows in the table, or 1 if the table is empty. Or, if the largest existing integer key 9223372036854775807 is in use then an unused key value is chosen at random.
[...]
CREATE TABLE t1(
a INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
b INTEGER
);
