twisted web server not ruuning a .rpy file

i am a toddler on Twisted .I am trying to run a Twisted web server using the command

    twistd web --resource-script=~/Desktop/step/ecdemo.rpy

assume that my file(ecdemo.rpy) is located on desktop in step folder

the traceback when i visit the page(127.0.0.1:8080/ecdemo.rpy) shows

    <type 'exceptions.IOError'>: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '~/Desktop/step/ecdemo.rpy

however if i run the same file with command python ecdemo.rpy it runs smoothly.

The program simply renders a get request from an http page

I know it is something basic that i do not know but if you could help me get started i would come up with better problems...

thanks for help.

Your shell didn't expand ~ into your home directory. Try this instead:

twistd web --resource-script ~/Desktop/step/ecdemo.rpy

Notice I removed the = between the option name and its value. This will probably let your shell turn ~ into /home/whoever.
