After Upgrading The DocuShare Federated Servers Do Not See Each Other
Issue
DocuShare federated servers do not see each other after a DocuShare server upgrade.
Solution
Note: Ideally all federated sites, moderator and member, are upgraded at the same time. Then the moderator should be started first. It is still vitally important to clear all events before the upgrade.
Note: For detailed instructions on how to Upgrade a Federation click the How To Upgrade a Federation from Pre 6.5 to 6.5.x link listed at the bottom of this solution.
A federated server checks the versions of the other sites and will only connect to sites at the same version. If unable to upgrade all at the same time, then the sites at the old version would not be connected to sites running the new version.
Note: DocuShare servers in a federation must be at the same version level.
