I was just trying to click on one of the Image Libraries in my Sitefinity v. 8.1.5820 site when I received the following error message:

The ContentViewDefinition with name 'LibraryImagesBackend' does not exist in configuration files.
           You should either add the ContentViewDefiniton with such name to the configuration;
           change ControlDefinitionName or load ControlDefinition programmatically by setting
           the ControlDefinition property.

Please advise as to how to resolve this problem.

Thanks.

Hi,

Based on our experience this issue may occur after an upgrade if the Libraries module has not been upgraded properly. Can you please try to re-install the Libraries module from Administration -> Modules and Services. Please find the module and the from its Actions link select Deactivate, Uninstall and then Install.

When I attempt to perform a re-install of the module, I get a "Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint pk_sf_presentation_data" error message thus causing a failure of re-installing the module.

Please advise how to resolve this problem.

Thanks.
