Hello bdagirt and Welcome to the Do It Yourself Web Site and to the Gas Appliances topic.
Bit of confusion. Kindly clarify. You stated the pilot is lit. Pilot flame that burns constantly or one the lights when a sparker lights it?
Or, does the oven have a hot surface glow igniter? Likely has a glow igniter. If so, chances are the HSI is weak. Replace it and oven should work.
Cautionary Reminder Note:
Before attempting any repairs, be sure to unplug the appliance from the wall receptacle power source first.
Retail appliance parts dealers can also help determine what the possible problem may be. Bring the make, model and serial numbers. Appliance part stores and dealers are listed in the phone book.
