## Setting up a systemd service
The systemd unit for conduwuit can be found
[here](../configuration/examples.md#example-systemd-unit-file). You may need to
change the `ExecStart=` path to where you placed the conduwuit binary.
Two example systemd units for conduwuit can be found
[on the configuration page](../configuration/examples.md#debian-systemd-unit-file).
You may need to change the `ExecStart=` path to where you placed the conduwuit
binary if it is not `/usr/bin/conduwuit`.
On systems where rsyslog is used alongside journald (i.e. Red Hat-based distros and OpenSUSE), put `$EscapeControlCharactersOnReceive off` inside `/etc/rsyslog.conf` to allow color in logs.

If you are using a different `database_path` other than the systemd unit
configured default `/var/lib/conduwuit`, you need to add your path to the
systemd unit's `ReadWritePaths=`. This can be done by either directly editing
`conduwuit.service` and reloading systemd, or running `systemctl edit conduwuit.service`
and entering the following:
```
[Service]
ReadWritePaths=/path/to/custom/database/path
```
