Your problem is that the default python version is 2.6, and it is running twistd for that version.

Run the program from the site-packages of Python 2.7: use usr/lib/python2.7/site_package/twistd instead of twistd. To make it more convenient for yourself, you can set an alias for twistd with Python 2.7 (twistd_27) to point to the right version as follows:

alias twistd_27='<path to twistd>'
