Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Peter Vreman 2015-01-19 11:55:52 UTC 
Description of problem:
When deleting a Product the error "An error occurred removing the Products: Cannot delete a Red Hat Products or Products with Repositories published in a Content View" is too generic. It is for the user unclear how to proceed when he wants to delete the product. E.g. there is no link to a Published Content View.

Also the Error message describes 2 different Errors:
- Not allowed to delete Red Hat Products
- Not allowed to delete a published repository




Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:


Expected results:
- Cross-references from Products to ContentViews so it is known where the Product is used.
- Separate error for trying to delete a RedHat Product
- Separate error for message that for deleting a published product including the name of the Content views that use the repositories.
