Since non-programming users can learn little from coredumps, your shell likely suppresses them by default by setting the ulimit value to zero:
$ ulimit -c
0
You can set the value to any non-zero size, or simply remove the limit altogether using ulimit -c unlimited
See help ulimit or refer to man bash for details.
