WiX installer fails with Error 0x80070570: Failed to extract all files from container, erf: 1:4:0

I have created an MSI installer bootstrapper (so .exe) with WiX, it works on my computer (Windows 7) but when executed on another Windows 7 computer it fails with:

The most interesting part is probably Failed to extract all files from container.
What does it mean?
Any idea what could be causing the error on that particular computer?
