That's a DSQL error, and there should have been a text message with it.
Could you provide your SP definition and *also* the statement that you are
using in your client app to submit the DDL request?

If it's an ODS 10.1 database, that might be the source of problems if you
are trying to do this on a Firebird 1.0 server, or you are using a Fb 1.0
client with a Fb 1.5 server. Firebird 1.0 databases are ODS 10, not
10.1. In this case, the thing that prompts the DSQL error is anyone's
guess. It might be thrown, for example, when a Fb 1.0 server finds indexes
on a metadata table that it doesn't think ought to be there. (Indexing on
metadata tables was what prompted the ODS version stepping up at Fb 1.5).
