Built for admins

The boring parts run themselves.

  • One-click modpack install

    Browse and install packs from Modrinth, CurseForge, FTB and ATLauncher without doing the usual server-pack cleanup by hand.

  • Forge, Fabric and Paper

    Run plugin servers, lightweight Fabric packs or heavier Forge setups from the same panel.

  • Live console and logs

    Watch startup logs, player joins and crash output in real time so problems are obvious fast.

  • Backups before risky changes

    Take restore points before updates, world imports or mod changes, then roll back with one click.

  • File manager and player tools

    Manage configs, whitelist, ops and world files from the browser instead of editing everything over SSH or FTP.

  • Plugin and mod workflow

    Install common Paper plugins quickly and keep modded Minecraft in one place instead of juggling separate tooling.

Questions

Minecraft hosting FAQ.

Things people ask before signing up.

How much RAM does a Minecraft server need?
Vanilla Minecraft with 5–10 players runs fine on 4 GB. For modded Minecraft, 8 GB is the practical starting point for most groups. Heavy packs like All The Mods usually want 10–12 GB once several players explore at once. You can start smaller and scale up later, but serious modpacks should not be sized like vanilla.
Can I install modpacks from Modrinth, CurseForge, FTB and ATLauncher?
Yes. The panel includes a built-in modpack browser for Modrinth, CurseForge, FTB and ATLauncher, plus import paths for packwiz manifests and ZIP server packs. CoalHost is designed around Minecraft modpacks, not just vanilla worlds with a few plugins.
Do you support Paper, Forge and Fabric?
Yes. You can run Paper for plugin servers, Forge for classic heavy modpacks and Fabric for lighter modded setups. That covers the most common Minecraft hosting use cases instead of forcing you into a one-size-fits-all stack.
Why choose CoalHost over a generic Minecraft host?
If you mostly care about vanilla, many hosts look similar. CoalHost matters when you want low-latency EU Minecraft, modpack support, clean backups and tools that reduce the admin friction around Forge, Fabric and larger multiplayer worlds.
How long does a Minecraft server take to set up?
Vanilla and Paper are usually ready in under 2 minutes. Modpacks take longer depending on pack size, but the panel shows install progress so you can see what is happening instead of guessing whether the server is stuck.
Can I move an existing world or switch from another host?
Yes. Upload your world, plugins, configs or modpack files through the file manager and continue from there. If you are moving from another Minecraft host, the practical workflow is to bring the world over, start cleanly, then restore plugins and mods in stages.
