It appears to be only at the bottom. The Carpet is dry so it must be a slow leak. Any ideas? The camper is at a permanent spot with the slides out.

There are a few seals on these. Ours has a wiper seal that gets caught half tucked inward after we run the slides out. We have to carefully pull it outward each time. Then there's an inner and outer bubble seal around d the edges. However they are not one price continuous and seamless at the corners. Not like a car door seal.
So they may have shrunk some and there could be an exposed corner leak. Best thing is to remove furniture and whatever you can around the area. Then have an assistant run water over different areas. I'd start lower and work my way up. Be thorough and slowly work around running the water over the areas outside. Meanwhile be inside with a good eye and flashlight to spot the leak.
They are a pain in the azz. Friend bought a new truck and after replacing seals and many visits to the dealership, they never did find the leak.
