Please tell us the error number:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/mount.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <string.h>

int main()
{
int mounting;
mounting = mount("/dev/hda1", "/mnt","vfat", MS_MGC_VAL," ");
printf("%d", mounting);
if (mounting != 0)
  printf("Error: %d (%s)\n", errno, strerror(errno));
return 0;
}

Can you mount the partition from shell using the same parameters?, e.g.:

# mount /dev/hda1 /mnt -t vfat

yes i can mount at the terminal but using program it is not working...

Use 0 or NULL instead of " " for the last argument if you don't want to pass any data parameters to the filesystem.
