In previous versions Check_MK raised exceptions when a view is using sorters or painters that do not exist anymore. This could easily happen for the painters and sorters created dynamically for each tag group.

Check_MK is now silently skipping these sorters and painters to prevent the exception and make use of such views possible again. You can then remove those sorters / painters using the view editor.
