conduwuit-example.toml comes with an empty database_path (marked "YOU NEED TO EDIT THIS"). However, the conduwuit.service files include flags that restrict which directories continuwuity can access, so the only value which works when running continuwuity as a systemd service is /var/lib/conduwuit (which notably is not the example value provided in the configuration).
