A very common problem. the thermocouple may be bad. that is the little device that goes in the pilot light's flame and is a safety feature. no gas can flow unless the pilot light is lit. generally an easy part to find and pretty easy replacement. take a look online at youtube.com for videos showing how. plus the part is around $20 or less. good luck
