Flash() a message quiz not passing, getting a bummer "EnvironBuilder"

I keep getting a bummer and I can't figure out what I am doing wrong. May somebody kindly help here

flask_app.py 
from flask import Flask, redirect, url_for, render_template, flash

app = Flask(__name__)
app.secret_key = 'hdkdjskadfjajakldlve8reu4'


@app.route('/')
def index():
    return render_template("index.html")

@app.route('/fishy')
def fishy():
    flash("Thank you!")
    return redirect(url_for('index'))

This has happened to a few people recently and seems to be a bug. Advice others have received is to contact support.

I attempted the challenge again and passed. So, I think the "bug" or whatever it was has already been fixed. I am naturally excited! Thanks to the Treehouse team.
