My code is running properly on one system whereas in the other system I am getting the error datenum failed while running the same code. Both the system have same version installed.Error using dtstr2dtnummx failed to convert text to date. I have tried restarting system and reinstalling MATLAB still issue persists

There was a very old bug, fixed something like a decade ago, with failures for no apparent reason in that function (I think? maybe?), but not on all platforms. You really need to provide complete information. Data, and complete details of the platforms and MATLAB versions.

The bug may have been an issue on occasion, but I don't recall a time that the above error wasn't owing to a date string in the input list not matching the format expected. This is most often the case if a specific string isn't provided and the routine builds its own based on parsing the file internally.

There is a difference. You do not tell, which difference it is, because you are not aware of what it is. The readers in the forum cannot find out, what it is, but you can.
Please give us an example of the failing data. The "dd/mm/yyyy" format means, that it is not a problem with the language of the month names, because numbers are used.
