I just ported an application from 1.0.3 Classic to 1.5 SS on Linux.

I am getting a new and strange message from the engine

SQLCODE: -833 - expression evaluation not supported

1) what does this mean - I am doing a simple insert with shorts,
longs, datestamps, and string (one datestamp has a suspicious value
in the day portion - -678971 - could this be it???)

2) why does once it occurs - every following insert gets the same
message - is some new kind of clear required here in 1.5

PS - if you are trying to use FB 1.5 Classic and UDFs - beware using a
call to routines like isc_encode_date (causes wierd problems with all
routines not being findable - entry point not found).
