Creating an installer fails when the package is too large

I am trying to create an installer for my application and it fails with the following error message.

creating windows installer
Failed with exit code: 1
Output:
Attempting to build package from 'kiosk-oven.nuspec'.
lib\net45\resources\app\os\raspbian-pibakery.img
Can not access a closed Stream.

npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above.

FYI, lib\net45\resources\app\os\raspbian-pibakery.img is a fairly large file(~5gb).

Sometimes it doesn't fail while building the installer but when I try to run the installer i get the following error. error

Am I doing something wrong? I basically need to package a OS image file along with my application.
