Can't hear or smell gas coming out of the burners. Electric starter not making "clicking" noise. Won't light with a match. Grill is working with the electric starter. What might be wrong?

There are a number of possibilities. My guess is that this might be an oven where the gas for the oven uses a solenoid operted gas valve and it's broken.
Is it one with a fold down lid? If so it may be the lid inhibit device has got a little sticky and has stuck in the closed position.
Pound in the meter?
But then the grill would probably also stop. Lids have either: No interlock (common on low end kit). Total cut off of the supply gas. Mechanical interlock to the hob gas taps.
