Those seals dry out if left without water for too long a time, like when it sits for several months between camping seasons. That's what happened to mine when it sat on a consignment lot for 2 years until I bought it. The bowl wouldn't hold water.
What I did was pour 1/4" deep puddle of ATF in there and let it sit. That caused the seal to swell up and it started sealing against water again. Got away with doing that periodically for years before I got around to changing the entire toilet because of a rotted out mechanical part.
