java.io.FileNotFoundException: ~/play-2.1.1/framework/sbt/boot/update.log (No such file or directory)

I wrote a Puppet to install Play 2.1.1 on Virtual Machine running CentOS 6.2.

The Puppet executed the following two commands:

/usr/bin/wget http://downloads.typesafe.com/play/2.1.1/play-2.1.1.zip

/usr/bin/unzip play-2.1.1.zip

When I run play command inside the package, it shows the following error message:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: ~/play-2.1.1/framework/sbt/boot/update.log (No such file or directory)

Error during sbt execution: java.io.FileNotFoundException: ~/play-2.1.1/framework/sbt/boot/update.log (No such file or directory)

I didn't change a single line of code in the play-2.1.1 directory. I googled around for the error message, but did not find any useful answer. Could anyone point out what is the problem?

If the file does not exist and cannot be created,FileOutputStream will raise a FileNotFoundException (yes, this seems weird, but see the javadoc).

This error probably means that the user that started play does not have the proper permissions to create ~/play-2.1.1/framework/sbt/boot/update.log or its parent directories.
