One change you need and one thing to check... Your serviceUserName should be your twitter id rather than your email address. And you should check to make sure the configured url in the ".gnip" file created by the setup routine matches the one you were given when you setup your account with Gnip.

Thank you had to change the username to twitter handle and it solved the problem.

Glad to help. Good luck digging into historical twitter data--very addicting.
