I assume you create the user as part of the <users> section in autoinst.xml .
post-scripts are called before second stage configuration (like e.g. creating
users) are done so the user and its home dir does not yet exist.

Solutions:
1) You could use a init-script, it is run after all configuration is done 
   and all services are up and running
2) you create the user via a call to useradd in the post-script before putting
   the file into its home directory. In this case the user should be removed 
   from <users> section in autoinst.xml
