You have a hard-coded format for converting an Ignition datetime (really a java.util.Date object) into a python datetime. Of course it will break if you change the locale.

Learn to use Ignition’s date/time manipulation functions instead of jython’s datetime module. (I’ve never had a good experience with jython’s datetime implementation.)

Or, for advanced operations, just use java’s Date, Calendar, TimeZone, and Instant classes directly.
