It still nothing happens and I got the following warning WARNING:

I cannot see any reason why changes suggested would prevent the object from being recognized by whatever processor you are using (you don't say which it is) provided it is a conforming XSL-FO processor.

Here is the full stylesheet.
...
<fo:simple-page-master page-master-name="general">

I note that page-master-name= is *not* an attribute for simple-page-master.

<fo:region-body
margin-left="36pt" margin-right="36pt" margin-top="72pt"
margin-bottom="72pt" />
...
<fo:flow flow-name="photo" font-family="sans-serif" font-size="10pt" >

I note there is no region in your page geometry with the flow name of "photo".

<fo:sequence-specification>

I note this is not an element type in the standardized XSL-FO vocabulary.

If the remainder of this instance beyond fo:external-graphic is working, it does not look like a conforming XSL-FO processor is being used to process your instance.

                <fo:block><fo:external-graphic
src='url("file:/c:/logo.jpg")' height="3cm" width="3cm"/></fo:block>

I note that you have not changed the syntax as suggested, perhaps leaving it this way will continue to give you problems when you have resolved why your processor is complaining about the correct spelling of an element type in the FO vocabulary.

But it looks like you aren't even using standard XSL-FO.

If the filename is c:\logo.jpg, then I belive the correct URL syntax for this is:

      file:///c:/logo.jpg

So, try:

<fo:external-graphic src='url("file:///c:/logo.jpg")' height="3cm" width="3cm"/>

The form "file:/x..." where 'x' is any character other than '/' is not a syntactically correct URL according to RFC1738.

Those who are using Java (and thus any of the many XSL tools implemented in Java) will find that the "file:///<path>" form which is correct according to RFC1738
