One solution is ullage motors (Wikipedia) to provide artificial gravity.

The four ullage motors of the Saturn V rocket used in the American Apollo program were located on the second stage. In the third stage (known as S-IVB), there was a more general Auxiliary Propulsion System that also had ullage functions.
