Then that pretty clearly means that there's something wrong with what you're putting in the config file.  Check the journal, check for selinux errors, etc.  Given that it works when run as root, that would indicate a permission or an selinux issue.  I just checked the selinux rules for it and it's only allowed to read files in /var/lib and /home, so where did you put the dict files you were adding?


Hi Samuel, you nailed it! I moved the dictionary files to /var/lib/dict/ and now everything works...thanks and also thanks everyone else for the help.

BTW, I just found this man page if anyone wants to know the ins and outs of dictd and selinux:
