When deleting an asset, then going to a products "files", I get this error:

Fatal error admin/core/lib/PerchFieldTypes.class.php1843

How are you deleting the asset? What are your steps?

I'm going to Assets, finding asset, deleting. (maybe not suggested approach, but a valid one), then going to products, my product, then files, then the error is in there.

Hope that helps!

You should be deleting the asset from the product screen. While the assets can be deleted from the assets panel, it also gives you a warning that deleting the asset could be a problem. Try deleting it properly from the product page and report if the issue still exists.

I'm going to Assets, finding asset, deleting.

You mean through the control panel? Clicking the red delete button, confirming that it's a bad idea if the asset is in use, and then continuing to delete it?
