Defect #6158

Needs warning when trying to close a ticket that is blocked by another one

Description
We recently faced a situation where we tried to close a ticket that was blocked (marked as blocked by another one), but didn't figured out that this was blocking "closed status".
I think it shall improve usability by including a warning on top of the ticket stating that the ticket is blocked by XXXXX etc.
Well, it's in the related tickets section already.

I agree. Duplication of information on the issue should be prevented IMHO.

I agree that a little notice next to the status dropdown would be nice. It's a training issue to make sure that users know the effects of linked tickets.
- Related to Feature #31589: Show warning and the reason when the issue cannot be closed because of open subtasks or blocking open issue(s) added
- Status changed from New to Closed
- Resolution set to Duplicate
The request is covered by #31589. The feature to show a warning when the issue cannot be closed due to the status of another issue is going to be available in the upcoming Redmine 4.2.0.
