Try the following:
[% file.create_dt('format', '%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S') %]
If you use fat arrows ( => ) in template toolkit, it will send your
arguments to the method as a hash reference. In other words, the
method call will occur like this:
$file->create_dt( { format => '%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S' } )
By using a comma instead of a fat arrow, template toolkit will send
the arguments as a list.
Alternatively, you can call a method on the DateTime object to get it
to format the date instead of using stringification:
[% file.create_dt.strftime('%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S') %]
