Noir render function causes NullPointerException

In my Clojure application I'm using Noir as web framework. I have one post page defined which is saving some data onto a mongodb database and I'm then trying to render another page:

(defpage "/delivery/save" [delivery]
 (let [id (save-delivery delivery)]
    (render "/delivery/list" id))

I then have another page:

(defpage "/delivery/list/:id" {:id id}
   (this should render the page))

However I'm getting a NullPointerException when calling the render function. Any idea why is this happening? Please let me know if you need more details.

Thanks, Nico

Here's the stacktrace:

You need to specify exactly the same url:

 (defpage "/delivery/list/:id" {id :id}
   "whoot!")

 (defpage "/delivery/save" []
   (let [id 100]
     (render "/delivery/list/:id" id)))

But this is ugly, it is better to give names to your pages:

 (defpage delivery-page "/delivery/list/:id" {id :id}
   "whoot!")

 (defpage "/delivery/save" []
   (let [id 100]
     (render delivery-page id)))

Which is pretty neat. Also it has the advantage that you can easily test your delivery-page:

 (delivery-page 123)
