Are you following this tutorial? https://sdk.dfinity.org/docs/developers-guide/work-with-languages.html#_using_c

If you’ve compiled the program into WebAssembly successfully, then the problem might be with the dfx.json in this step: https://sdk.dfinity.org/docs/developers-guide/work-with-languages.html#_create_a_minimal_configuration_file .

Try the following in your dfx.json file instead:

{
    "canisters": {
        "reverse": {
            "main": "reverse",
            "candid": "build/reverse/reverse.did",
            "type": "custom",
            "wasm": "build/reverse/reverse.wasm"
        }
    },
    "dfx": "0.6.14",
    "networks": {
        "local": {
            "bind": "127.0.0.1:8080",
            "type": "ephemeral"
        }
    }
}

If you are looking for a good example for C, then I would highly recommend that you checkout this example.
