If "it didn't work", then there can only be two reasons. One is that
the filesystem may not let you append (>>) to a file that doesn't
exist. Try > instead. The second is that you may not be in the
directory you think you are when you try to open the file. Put a
"print `pwd`" in the script and see where it thinks it is.
The : at the beginning of the path is correct, though. Leaving it off is not.
