It is possible that all conditions are being met for the safety features: water pressure, gas pressure etc. there might be air in the line (instead of gas) get a licensed technician to bleed the line to the heater.
if you hear the clicking, the ignitor is firing. it might not be aligned properly for the burners to ignite. again, this is a job for licensed technician.

SOURCE: we have a hayward H100IDP1

Make sure the pipes are full of water. Check the thermostat to see if it is calling for heat. Make sure the thermostat is set to a temperature higher than the current temp of the water. If all those things are Ok then the unit may have gone off on high limit the last time you used it or the gas valve coils may have to be replaced. If there is a reset button for high limit press it. If not then the safety sensor for high limit may have to be replaced. If the unit fires up but does not stay on then the gas valve coils may need to be replaced.

SOURCE: I have a hayward h100idp1 that the fans turns on

You might need to have someone from your local gas company clean out your line. If fuel is not reaching the pilot, that could be the problem. If you try that and it doesn't work, try checking your user's manual for these pool heaters:

Heater wont light,seems like all the safety switches have been met,has spark but dosen't seem to be getting propane

About when the sparking starts you should hear a louder snap that should open the gas valve. If you hear this and if there is gas pressure the spark gap is in the correct location it will light (you should also smell gas). On the other hand if any of these things aren't right it won't light. There is a plug on the incoming side of the valve that can be loosened to tell if there is gas available. If you leak enough gas to purge the gas line then that will eliminate a possible air problem. Make sure there is no source of ignition anywhere near during the purging process. Once the plug is closed tightly and you have waited 5 minutes you can try again. If you can't hear the valve come on then you can use a volt/ohm meter to measure the voltage going to the coil of the gas valve. When the ignitor is sparking there should be 115 VAC between these two wires. If you have further questions I should be able to answer them.

We have a hayward H100IDP1 pool heater,,we can hear fan come on,,but does not ignite...Was working fine beginning of season,,,notwont ignite..Pool filter is fine andrunning well,,could it be a pilot ...

Make sure the pipes are full of water. Check the thermostat to see if it is calling for heat. Make sure the thermostat is set to a temperature higher than the current temp of the water. If all those things are Ok then the unit may have gone off on high limit the last time you used it or the gas valve coils may have to be replaced. If there is a reset button for high limit press it.
