This question is central to all of Jane Austen's novels, and it is discussed by some of her heroines.
A good marriage, in Jane Austen's view, must be based on affection. This does not mean that a person has to be in love with someone to marry, but there must be affection - the people should at the least like each other.
In addition to this, there are clearly marriages in Jane Austen's writings, that are not destined to succeed, even though affection is present. The likeliest cause of failure that she writes of is a financial inability to live according to the standards with which one is accustomed. A marriage between Elizabeth Bennet and Col. Fitzwilliam, in Pride and Prejudice, would not have worked because neither had enough money to support them in the way they would liked to have lived. Nor would a marriage between Marianne Dashwood and Willoughby in Sense and Sensibility.
A good marriage should include wisdom and discipline by the people involved. In Pride and Prejudice, Wickham's marriage to Lydia was doomed.
If either partner has good sense and intelligence, then the other must also, or at least one will be dissatisfied. This is why the marriage, in Pride and Prejudice, of Mr. Bennet to Mrs. Bennet was not happy for both of them.
Kindness and charity of feeling are also important, which is why the marriage of Robert Dashwood to Lucy Steele, in Sense and Sensibility, was destined not to be as happy as it otherwise might be.
