How to upload files to your Minecraft Server at Hostinger

Uploading files via File manager or FTP to your Minecraft server

Updated 2 weeks ago

To upload files to your Minecraft server at Hostinger, use File Manager in Game Panel or connect with a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) client such as FileZilla. File Manager also lets you download a file to the server directly from a URL.

Option 1 – File manager

If you are using Game Panel, you can easily upload files straight to File Manager:

You can also download them directly to Game Panel from the URL by left-clicking in the file manager and selecting Download file here from the menu that opens:

NOTE

  • Uploading directories is not possible – compress the desired directory first and then proceed with the upload

  • Downloading files directly from a URL is a much faster process

Option 2 – FTP

If you are using Game Panel, you can connect to your files via an FTP client such as FileZilla. Details for the FTP connection can be found by clicking on the Connect to SFTP button:
