LO 6.0.5.2 on Mac Sierra (10.12.6)
In some cases I can click into a line and set tabs normally.  In the 
document where I had the problem I believe it was a bulleted list or 
indented text (hanging indent I think) where I was having the problem.  
I opened the document today and quickly tried it again and can't find 
the section I was having problems in.  But I'm pretty sure I removed all 
formatting and started over in that section, at which point it worked.  
Wish I could reproduce it, as it was quite frustrating.  My guess is it 
was something to do with whatever formatting was applied in that 
section.  I don't yet use Styles so any formatting would have been set 
manually, and that would have been minimal.
If I encounter it again I'll be sure to post again, and try to post a 
sample document.

Hi.
What version of LO do you have.
Just as a test, can you click into just 1 line and then add a tab stop
to the ruler.

Also what OS?
In addition, can you post an example of the text/document that you
cannot format tabs for somewhere? Perhaps it is a data-dependent
problem, since tab stops work as you expect for other people including
me.
