Could be a lot of things causing this.
Easiest is to see if they are set to turn on/off in the Convenience settings on the instrument panel.
Harder issues would be:
verify the door switch is working (try the passenger door)
verify the bulbs are not burned out (unlikely for all of them to fail)
might be the unit that controls the lights (they are designed to slowly dim when they go out)
Let us know what solves it.

There is a switch on the main dome lamp switch to disable the interior courtesy lamps when a door is a ajar. Check which position it is in
