Issues Upgrading, Multiple Webservers

[boxingscene]

I have multiple webservers, when I run an upgrade from one version to the next - depending on which webserver hits the upgrade.php - that particular webserver gets bumped to the new version and the others somehow remain the same.

I tried to re-upgrade a few times and somehow it made things worse - with the admincp and the footers of every page now listed under the old version and not the new [not even sure how that happened].

Now sure where I'm going wrong or what I have to change on servers in order to do a complete upgrade.

You would need to provide more detail as to how the multi server setup is being done, there are numerous ways to setup a multi in this case, someone could provide you with a better answer then.

two webservers and a load blancer

That doesnt provide any detail about the setup itself.

I think I figured out the issue. I have items like CSS templates saved to the server. When upgrading or theme changes are made, etc........they are saving to one server but not the other. I guess there would have to be some tweaking, coding wise, to save it to one server or the other, and then copied over with a cron job.

No, you shouldnt be saving files on both servers, you should be doing a share if they are on the same gigabit private network or linked nic to nic.

If they arent, i would do a rsync.

Agreed on the sync, but the files would have to be modified slightly to direct them to upload everything to one particular server and then sync over to the other.

No, i didnt say sync, rsync & they should only be on one server with a share & no file modification is needed in either case.
