I did a cut-n-paste of the command line (as shown in ps) and ran it from the command line and from there it does create the dump file. the dump files are set
to be written to /var/tmp

I don't know if the problem is with rsyslog, SEC, or RHEL 6.x

so I figured I'd crosspost to both lists to see if anyone had an idea :-)

Does the dumpfile already exist in /var/tmp? If so, it is not overwritten for security reasons. Also, for troubleshooting I'd recommend to use the --log=<logfile> option, in order to get a log message about why writing was unsuccessful.

no, the dumpfiles do not already exist. I'll enable logfile and do more checking, thanks.
