I am getting exception while running appium program. Please ask if extra information needed.

TLDR:

original error: 'app' option is required for reinstall

It seems like you did not add "app" capability in your DesiredCapability and you are using noReset capability. You can add "app" capability and give .ipa or .apk file location.

DesiredCapabilities caps = new DesiredCapabilities();
caps.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.APP, "path to ipa/apk file" );
//others capabilities
