The most common reason egg whites and sugar will not for stiff peaks is that a bit of egg yolk or oil has come in contact with the egg whites. If the bowl and beaters have a residue of oil from a previous use, that is enough to prevent egg whites from stiffening.
Another possibility is that the sugar was added before the whites were partially beaten, or that the sugar was added all at once instead of gradually.
