Why does this simple Hydra command not work despite the writeup specifying the exact same syntax?

So lately I have been trying to learn hydra from tryhackme, and tried to use this simple command

hydra -l molly -P /Users/root/Desktop/ctf/rockyou.txt 10.10.161.247 http-form-post "/:username=^USER^&password=^PASS^:F=incorrect" -V

But it does not work and shows

Syntax: hydra [[[-l LOGIN|-L FILE] [-p PASS|-P FILE]] | [-C FILE]] [-e nsr] [-o FILE] [-t TASKS] 
[-M FILE [-T TASKS]] [-w TIME] [-W TIME] [-f] [-s PORT] [-x MIN:MAX:CHARSET] [-c TIME] 
[ISOuvVd46] [service://server[:PORT][/OPT]]

What am i doing wrong? I am using Hydra V9.0 on MacOS Mojave. This is the writeup I am talking about.

You have to specify the directory for the login form. Try this instead:

hydra -l molly -P [wordlist directory] [IP] http-form-post "login/:username=^USER^&password=^PASS^:F=incorrect" -V

This shall work.
