Make sure there's kindling/fuel in the campfire and then put the matches in your hands, look at the campfire, and hold the left mouse button when the prompt comes up.

What bam said - you can use just about anything flammable for kindling: bark, short sticks, rags, paper, bandages, etc

Yep you need a machete or some knife, kitchen, hunting, steak or stone. Apparently you can find stones if you stand still on a dirt pathway. They will apparently spawn every two minutes. You can use two of them to craft a stone knife that you can then get bark.

Paper works too and you can get this by opening a box of ammunition. It drops on the ground after you open the ammunition.
