RE: SQL0440 with Trigger and Stored Procedure

I must be doing something wrong. I've tried most everything folks have 
suggested and still no deal.  I keep getting *stupid* production 
problems all day and I haven't had as much time to try this.

I entered the following :
CREATE PROCEDURE mylib/MFPUT_SP1 (CHAR(1), CHAR(10), CHAR(10), CHAR
(10), CHAR(10)) EXTERNAL NAME Mylib/MyFTPPGM LANGUAGE CL 

then :
CREATE TRIGGER MFPUT_TI AFTER INSERT ON mylib/MFPUT   
CALL mylib/MFPUT_SP1 (CHAR('D'),                      
                          CHAR('FTPSERVER', 10),          
                          CHAR('FTPUSER1', 10),          
                          CHAR('mylib', 10),          
                          CHAR('member', 10))              

I get "Token CHAR was not valid. Valid tokens: : BLOB CLOB DATE DBCLOB 
DLVA..." back. 

The only 'casted' parameter list that worked was :
CREATE TRIGGER MFPUT_T1 AFTER INSERT ON mylib/MFPUT
SP1: BEGIN
 DECLARE QVERSION char(1) default 'D' ;
 DECLARE QSERVER char(10) default 'FTPSERVER ' ;
 DECLARE QFTPUSER char(10) default 'FTPUSER   ' ;
 DECLARE QPARMLIB char(10) default 'mylib     ' ;
 DECLARE QPARMMBR char(10) default 'MEMBER    ' ;
CALL MFPUT_SP1 (QVERSION, QSERVER, QFTPUSER, QPARMLIB, QPARMMBR);
END SP1

I still got the SQL0440 error when adding the record via DFU to MFPUT
The parameters passed to MyFTPPGM are :
&Version Char(1)
&Server  Char(10)
&FTPUID  Char(10)
&ParmLib Char(10)
&ParmMbr Char(10)
