App Engine applications cannot write to the filesystem; the library
you're using is expecting to be able to write to a temporary file,
which is impossible.

Hi

Have your read the code in the twitter library you are using ?

If you did you will see that it has a default cache implementation
that writes to the filesystem. Writing to the filesystem is not
possible in appengine.
You will need to supply an alternate cache implementation (use
memcache for instance) when you call twitter.Api().

If you can not write your own or find one, have you tried google -
try "python twitter api" ? There are other twitter libraries for
python available.
