Note
Before implementing the following solution, ensure that the content item from the error message is not detached. If the item is detached, after you re-attach it, the change will show up in the local changes under items and not packs.
In your development environment, upgrade the relevant content pack, or re-install the content pack from → → .
Push the content pack that was updated as well as the relevant items from the Items tab in local changes in the development environment.
In your production environment, pull your content.
