Perfectly possible... The locale error may happen when converting data
beforesending it to the engine, although when I saw it it was the opposite
(data coming from the server)

The socket error naturally comes from the client... the query cannot be
sent to the engine, because the communication channel was closed. It's an
appserver error that causes the client error.

The last one also seems plausible... if the parameter name is wrong, the
prepare will fail.

Bottom line is, further investigation is required on the code and data,
with the exception of 79716. This is the simplest one. Change your firewall
rules or activate keepalive in the Informix engine and set the OS
parameters so that the keepalive probes are sent before the firewall
considers the connection as "stale"
