Sounds like your system is Buggy. and by Buggy I specifically mean a spider. This spider likes the smell of Propane and/or natural gas and will build its nest in the burner oriface. Cleaning same often fixes the problem you describe.
THERE ARE.. HOWEVER.. .OTHER CAUSES
One is the excess flow valve on your tank.> Does the Furnace work. Stove top work (All burners lit) if so then this valve is likely NOT your problem .. If not. then it likely IS.. To reset make yourelf a cup of coffee (May need to use and electric or campfire pot for that) turn off gas at the tank. Enjoy the coffee. SLOWLY turn the gas back on If you hear gas flowing STOP when you no longer hear it continue. till the valve is full open.
