There is a pump in the tank, I tried pouring water in the bowl, that DID NOT WORK. THIS WAS A RENT HOUSE AND THE TENANTS WERE VERY NASTY PEOPLE.
Get in a plumber and get rid of the tenants
if you filled up the cistern and the pump was working it should flush as there would be water to pump if the pump was working
A good first step is to check the basics before taking major action. If the cistern has water and the pump is running, the toilet should normally flush unless there is an issue with the pump, blockage, or another part of the system. It’s best to have a plumber inspect the setup to identify the actual cause before making any decisions.
It will fluch once but there is no automatice refill with the water turned off

Remove the tank lid and look at the fill valve. Is it a yellow valve?
This fill valve is common on the Toto Toilets and can easliy plug with debrie.
They can be disassmbled and cleaned. however, I usually just replace the valve with Fluid Master Fill valve.
You will also want to check the water coming into the toilet by turning off the water that supplies the toilet and disconnecting the water supply line. After removing the water supply line turn on the water at the valve to make sure that the water is flowing properly. Check the supply line also to make sure it is not plugged.
Be sure and place a small container to catch the water that will come from the valve. A towell will also help from making too much of a mess.
If the Supply line and the valve are clear the problem is in the fill valve.
The G-Max system denotes the Flushiing system which is a 3" flapper that allows the water from the tank to flow into the bowl quicker.
Good Toilets!

SOURCE: Toilet will not fill up
Some Toto fill valves have a plastic debris screen located at the inlet connection. Turn off the supply valve and remove the supply connection at the bottom of the tank. Use a mirror to inspect the screen for debris.
I agree w/ Smithbrother, the Fluidmaster fill valves are cheap and work well. The only thing they ever need is an occasional seal for $1.50 and 5 minutes to replace.
SOURCE: basement toilet won't flush. water fills the bowl
Check your flapper line to the flush handle. The flapper is in the tank on bottom. There shoiuld be a plastic line to handle or chain. :)

The siphon mechanism works on a vacuum principle. If there is the slightest damage to the siphon membrane you will experience the problem you describe. A new siphon is required.
