This is a shot in the dark and I may be way off, but is there a chance your
scrip to set the owner runs in a transaction that happens after the transaction
that resolves the ticket?
And the chart looks for the resolved transaction to get owner at the time of
resolution?
Just a thought.

In your script add:

To see if for some reason your env vars aren't seeing the RT path.
