have you aligned the thermocple up correctly. Its got to be over the pilot & burn red hot

I think that my hubby was discussing that yesterday.. It does look red when its been on a while but not when you first light it, so will check that out . Thanks

that was my thought too, only has to be slightly out to stop working also if its a universal thermo coupling they sometimes have slightly different fittings which dont always line up properly

Make sure the thermocouple actually IS suitable.
Presumably you have checked the pilot flame to make sure it is correct shape flame and not got some dirt in it on rebuild.
