Two things come to mind:

  1. Make sure you can install from other locations than market. Goto Settings->Applications and check the 'Unknown sources' checkbox.

  2. The installation will fail if you already have the app installed with a different signature. Manually uninstall the app on your phone.

Edit: Also, is the apk signed with a release key? If so, you might want to verify that the signing/package aligning was done correctly.

Check if your phone's internal memory is full.

Either free up some space or edit your AndroidManifest.xml to include the installLocation property

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:installLocation="preferExternal"
    ... >
