I am aware this question was asked a long time ago, so if you've found a solution just ignore this.

Sometimes, this happens when:

a) The machine where you're installing the app does not have the correct Crystal Reports runtime or C++ Redistributable version installed. For example, when you have installed a 32-bit package on a 64-bit machine.
b) The application is compiled for a different CPU than the target CPU - for example, if the target machine is 32-bit but yours is 64-bit, you're going to need to switch the target CPU to x86 for the app that you install on the target machine. You can fix this by building the application and simply swapping the executable on the targer machine with the new one - no need to reinstall.
