Move your Minecraft server from BisectHosting

Moving is three steps: get the files out of BisectHosting, put them here with the importer, point your players at the new address. Your world, plugins or mods and configs come along; nothing is retyped.

1. Get the files out of BisectHosting

Bisect’s panel shows SFTP or FTP details in its file access section; use them in the importer. The world is the world folder (with world_nether and world_the_end on Paper), plugins in plugins, mods in mods. If the server was created from a modpack there, install the same pack here first from Resources, Modpacks, then import only the world and configs.

2. Bring them here

  1. Create the server on FadeHost with the same software and Minecraft version as the old one. Do not start it yet.
  2. More for this server, Import from another host (also under Settings, Import).
  3. Choose SFTP or FTP and enter the old host’s details, or upload the zip you downloaded. Pick what to pull: the world, plugins or mods, configs.
  4. Start the server and read the console. A plugin that stored the old address or an absolute path needs a config edit.

3. Switch the address

Players take the new address from the server page, or from the join page you share. A custom domain moves by changing its SRV record, or by connecting the domain in Settings, General, Your own domain. Keep BisectHosting for a day while people switch, then cancel it.

What is different here

  • One RAM pool for every server, changed by the gigabyte at any time; sleeping servers cost nothing while asleep.
  • Every modpack page on this site carries a measured RAM table for that pack.
  • Backups are automatic and restores, clones and per-file downloads are one click.
