NPE Opening Work Item

I'm getting the following when trying to open a work item. I'm using com.ibm.team.workitem.editor.default as the editor to use.

This is a relatively new project - I created this morning based on Simple Team Process and have been modifying. I added some roles, modified some permissions. Added a new tab to the Work Item page, but later removed it.

Any thoughts?

Thanks, Gary

OK, I found out how to fix. I had to go to:

Window->Preferences->General->Capabilities->Team and enable "Jazz Source Control" (from the "Advanced..." dialog). This is not enabled by default - why not? I have RTC 1.01 installed inside RSA 7.5, by the way.

Thanks, Gary
