We had this problem in our previous RV. It had a Sealand porcelain toilet mounted on a raised carpeted platform. The seals where new & it held water fine. I removed the toilet to re-check and founded lots of barely visible hair line cracks in the porcelain near the bottom of the toilet. I think it was weeping, un-noticed, into the carpet and smelling.
I'm not sure what caused the hair line cracks, maybe 10 years of vibrations in the RV or extreme range in temperatures between winter storage and summer use.
I replaced toilet and upper platform carpet and the problem went away.
