I got the answer by my own after doing a small research.

The error was due the licensing problem of visual studio .net 2005. The following packages had to be configured in Merge Reports (i.e C:\Program Files\Common Files\Merge Modules)

Crystal_Managed2003.msm Crystal_Database_Access2003.msm Crystal_Database_Access2003_enu.msm Crystal_regwiz2003.msm

And then we need to enter the license key while deploying the application correctly.

Later the following packages would be installed automatically when we run the deployed .net application in ubuntu linux

Refer screenshot below

The WineHQ db claims that it will run. However, if you do intend to target the Linux and Windows platforms, I would suggest a more cross platform compatible library.
