Custom Wordpress Template Does Not Display in Custom Message Type

I am trying to use a custom page template in a custom post type. However, when you try to add a new page, the template parameter will not appear in the message type. See code below:

functions.php for custom post type:

    add_action( 'init', 'register_cpt_product' );

function register_cpt_product() {

    $labels = array( 
        'name' => _x( 'Products', 'product' ),
        'singular_name' => _x( 'Product', 'product' ),
        'add_new' => _x( 'Add New', 'product' ),
        'add_new_item' => _x( 'Add New Product', 'product' ),
        'edit_item' => _x( 'Edit Product', 'product' ),
        'new_item' => _x( 'New Product', 'product' ),
        'view_item' => _x( 'View Product', 'product' ),
        'search_items' => _x( 'Search Products', 'product' ),
        'not_found' => _x( 'No products found', 'product' ),
        'not_found_in_trash' => _x( 'No products found in Trash', 'product' ),
        'parent_item_colon' => _x( 'Parent Product:', 'product' ),
        'menu_name' => _x( 'Products', 'product' ),
    );

    $args = array( 
        'labels' => $labels,
        'hierarchical' => true,
        'description' => 'Product pages',
        'supports' => array( 'title', 'editor', 'excerpt', 'thumbnail', 'custom-fields', 'revisions', 'page-attributes' ),
        'taxonomies' => array( 'category' ),
        'public' => true,
        'show_ui' => true,
        'show_in_menu' => true,
        'menu_position' => 5,

        'show_in_nav_menus' => true,
        'publicly_queryable' => true,
        'exclude_from_search' => false,
        'has_archive' => false,
        'query_var' => true,
        'can_export' => true,
        'rewrite' => true,
        'capability_type' => 'page'
    );

    register_post_type( 'product', $args );
}

page template (except template tag)

<?php
/*
Template Name: Product
*/
?>

You cannot have page templates for any Wordpress template files:

how

archive-*.php
category-*.php
single-*.php // in your case

or any other.

But you may have page templates for page-*.phpor your custom filename.php:

any-file-name.php
page-*.php

Rename the file single-product.phpto another location or just delete singleand rename it something else

how

my-single-product.php // this should work

, single-product.php ().
