Description of problem: While creating an activation key I added a bonus pool to it (an available subscription created by consumption of a physical subscription). I then removed the system with the physical subscription, thus effectively eliminating the bonus pool. Viewing the activation key and selecting "Applied Subscriptions" tab throws error: undefined method `productName' for nil:NilClass Started GET "/katello/activation_keys/1/applied_subscriptions" for 10.11.230.24 at Tue Mar 27 08:48:24 -0400 2012 Processing by ActivationKeysController#applied_subscriptions as HTML Parameters: {"id"=>"1"} Setting locale: en Setting current user thread-local variable to admin Checking params for activation_keys/applied_subscriptions Authorizing admin for activation_keys/applied_subscriptions Resource GET request: /candlepin/owners/ACME_Corporation/pools?

Hi Tom, what's the customer impact of this issue? Is this a common scenario? Does the presence of the 'nil:NilClass' failure introduce any non-recoverable issues?
moving to 1.0.z
Hopefully not common. 1.0.z would be good

To an activation key I added a bonus pool to it (an available subscription created by consumption of a physical subscription). I then removed the system with the physical subscription, thus effectively eliminating the bonus pool. Viewing the activation key and selecting "Applied Subscriptions" tab now shows "There are no more subscriptions available." and no error is thrown now.
