Transfer Minecraft world to new server?

I recently made a free Minecraft server with a friend, but since the project got a little bigger we wanted to switch to a "better server". I now have the problem that I don't know how to transfer the files. Basically I just want to have the world we built on the new server.

Ps: I host the new server through Nitrado

Drag the folder from the world in the Nitrado web interface to the Spigot / Vanilla server. A plugin such as Multiverse Core is necessary for this!

You need the server files or more precisely the "world" folder.

This is on the server and you can e.g. Download with FTP (if the free provider offers it) …

Who was your previous provider? That is the much more important question because he has the world!

Me

No, no plugin is required for this!

Why then? A world can be loaded normally using the Vanilla software…

Sry am no longer in the whole Minecraft scene. But then he has to delete the old standard map and change the standard map in the server properties etc

Me

No that neither.

simply replace or pull in the existing folder before the server creates its own world.

No changes to the properties necessary.

But that has been the case since the beginning.

Mhmm then I probably just did something wrong haha. For me, a new "standard world" was always generated until I changed it in the properties.

Me

Yes, in the properties is the folder name in which the world is located. If you name the desired map exactly like the newly generated one, the "wanted" is loaded.

If you name the worlds folder differently, you also have to change the settings, but this is usually not really necessary.

ma

Oh haha then that was always my mistake 😂 Thanks!

The free provider was / is Server.pro. However, I did not find an FTB access at Nitrado.

You first need the file viewer at Server.pro

This provider must first provide you with the data, because it doesn't matter which provider you switch to…

Can you download the files from Server.pro or not? It depends on whether you can continue to use your world.

At Nitrado you have to upload the files again. But I think that this is not a problem with Nitrado… So first look at Server.pro and not at Nitrado!
