Could this be a propane related problem, clogged burner hose or a plumbing problem?

I hate to even say this, but is the gas valve turned on? I have seen this happen, by the way. Do you use pilot lights and are they lit?

as dumb as it may seem fordman and fallen are both on good paths for fixing this,, duh... how could i forget to open the tank valve?? I HAVE done it myself!! and propane itself is a very cold liquid and could freeze the valve!! usually a little sunshine will cure that problem...if you let the gas run out then you could just be having an air lock!!!! just let the gas run until you really smell gas!! then ventilate the area and re-light your pilot lights!!!! BE VERY CAUTIOUS and don't have any open flames around and ventilate good after you get gas back to the appliance!!!!!!

Sounds like it is a regulator problem outside of the house. Screen on the LP regulator might be frozen. So you need to thaw it out and then try and light your pilots.

Could be electrical, try flipping the breakers and see what happens then. My dad said if something ever quits working, start small and cheap, then work your way up the list of what it could be. Good luck.
