How did you start HAL? Without --retrain-privileges? In this case IMO hald run 
as user haldaemon (or something else), but not as user. Because of this hal 
can't access your home for read/write (depending on your access rights).

Possible solutions: 
- copy your script to a accessable dir (e.g. /tmp)
- start hal with --retain-privileges
