Without the expression you were evaluating it's hard to tell, but I suspect you evaluated an expression you expected to have a numeric value and it does not. You can use TraceDialog[expression,Message [___]] to enter a dialog at the point in evaluation that the message is issued. The offending expression should be the previous expression on the Stack.
