izpack installer not getting instantiated

I have made an installer using ANT integration and the build done is also successful. I tried testing the installer jar over ubuntu but it's not getting instantiated in windows 7. The version of Izpack that I'm using is izpack-dist-5.0.0-rc3.

I just get a warning each time I try to execute the jar, which is -> The below mentioned warning

Kindly provide any assistance, if possible.

This does not necessarily mean that there is a copy of izpack running in the background. Izpack creates a temp file when it gets executed which is created here, for example this can mean that the earlier run of izpack was terminated unexpectedly, in this case the file would still be there:

c:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Local\Temp

in following form:

iz-<appname from install xml header>.tmp

You can suppress displaying of this message by either running izpack with MULTIINSTANCE=true

java -DMULTIINSTANCE=true -jar izpack.jar

or by adding

<info>
  <singleinstance>false</singleinstance>
</info>

to the "info" section. This functionality is available in izpack 5.0.0-rc5 and newer.
