- General, Specific
SQLite requires very little set-up. By default the database will be created at one of the following locations depending on installation method:
| Installation method | Default database path |
|---------------------|------------------------------------------------------|
| Arch Linux package | `/var/lib/arsse/arsse.db` |
| Debian package | `/var/lib/dbconfig-common/sqlite3/arsse/arsse` |
| Manual installation | `arsse.db` in the The Arsse's installation directory |
This path can be changed with the [`dbSQLite3File` setting](/en/Getting_Started/Configuration#page_dbSQLite3File).
Regardless of the location used, The Arsse **must** be able to both read from and write to the database file, as well as create files in its directory. This is because SQLite also creates a write-ahead log file and a shared-memory file during operation.
