Hosting static file for Download Python Tornado

Question

Hey I am struggling to have a static file available for download using Python and Tornado on my server.

class templateHandler(tornado.web.RequestHandler):
def get(self):
    self.write("""
    <a href="/download"> Download </a>
    """)

application = tornado.web.Application([
(r"/", MyFormHandler),
(r"/results", MyFormHandler),
(r"/multi", MyFileHandler),
(r"/upload",MyFileHandler),
(r'/download',tornado.web.StaticFileHandler,{'path':"L:/Template.csv"}),
(r'/template', templateHandler),
(r"/SFA",SFAHandler),
])

Can someone help me out. I am not 100% certain on how the file handler works. Thanks for your help!

EDIT: Here is the error message:

I'm thinking it has to do with StaticFileHandler.get expecting a path, usually it does not serve a single file, but instead serves a directory of files, and takes a filename i don't have time to dig into it right now but it sshould be something like

(r'/download/(.*)',tornado.web.StaticFileHandler,{'path':"L:/"}),

now if you go to

/download/Template.csv it should serve it. Sorry I don't have time right now to look into source to confirm
