Rails nested resource not rendering form on new

@reckoner has_many @shift_requirements and in routes,

resources :reckoners do
  resources :shift_requirements
end

In a view under reckoner_controller.rb I have

<%= link_to 'create a shift', [:new, @reckoner, :shift_requirement]%>

... which fires the correct view containing a form helper. Then it throws the error - 

undefined method `shift_requirements_path' for #<#<Class:0x007f908e00a458>:0x007f908e8a09c8>

How have I gone wrong?

shift_requirement.rb is -

class ShiftRequirement < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :reckoner
end

reckoner.rb is -

class Reckoner < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :shift_requirements
end

... and the view in the form is now

<%= form_for(@reckoner, @shift_requirement) do |f| %>
...
<%= f.submit %>

I assume your form has:

<%= form_for(@shift_requirement) do |f| %>
  <%= f.submit %>
<% end %>

Because of your nested routes you want

<%= form_for([@reckoner, @shift_requirement]) do |f| %>
  <%= f.submit %>
<% end %>
