How to Connect to Your Minecraft Server with SFTP (FileZilla and WinSCP)
Copy the host, port and username from Settings > SFTP Details in the Crunchy.Host panel. Your password is your panel password. Use SFTP for anything big, like worlds, modpacks or whole mods folders. The Files tab is fine for editing configs.
FileZilla
- Install FileZilla Client.
- Open File > Site Manager > New site and fill in:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Protocol | SFTP - SSH File Transfer Protocol |
| Host | SFTP host |
| Port | SFTP port |
| Logon Type | Normal |
| User | SFTP username |
| Password | Panel password |
- Click Connect and trust the host key on first connect.
The right pane is the server, starting at /home/container. Drag files onto it to upload.
WinSCP
In the WinSCP login dialog, set File protocol to SFTP, enter the host, port, username and panel password, then click Login.
Tips
- Thousands of small files transfer slowly. Zip them, upload one archive and use Decompress in Files.
- Stop the server before replacing a world. Overwriting region files while it runs can corrupt them.
- If a file is locked, stop the server and try again.
