Getting Exception w/ Fluent -> Raw Expressions

Question

I have this query:

$sql = "SELECT 
      po_number AS `po_number`, 
      a.invoice_num AS `invoice_num`, 
      location_name AS `location_name`, 
      state AS `state`,
      terms AS `terms`, 
      duedate AS `duedate`,
      invoice_date AS `invoice_date`,
      sum(qty) AS `qty`,
  CASE WHEN payment_date IS NULL THEN invoice_total ELSE (invoice_total + new_payment_amount) END AS balance
  FROM
  (
  SELECT po_number, invoice_num, payment_date,invoice_total,Location_Job_Id,txn_id,
  terms, duedate,invoice_date,sum(CASE WHEN payment_date > :adate THEN 0 ELSE payment_amount END) AS new_payment_amount FROM PSI_Invoice_Payments a WHERE
  (

  IsPaid = 0 OR
  EXISTS
  (
  SELECT * FROM ATABLE b WHERE
  txn_date > :adate AND a.txn_id = b.txn_id
  )
  )
  AND a.client_id = :aclientid GROUP BY invoice_num
  ) a
  LEFT JOIN BTABLE c ON a.invoice_num = c.invoice_num
  LEFT JOIN CTABLE d ON a.Location_Job_Id = d.cust_location_id
  WHERE a.invoice_date <= :adate GROUP BY a.txn_id ORDER BY a.invoice_num";


    $results = \DB::select( 
        \DB::raw($sql), 
        [':adate' => $adate, ':aclientid' => $aclientid]
        );

I'm getting this Exception:

Illuminate \ Database \ QueryException SQLSTATE[HY093]: Invalid parameter number

Any idea? Is there a better way to execute these kind of queries?

As you can see, emulaton mode is turned off in connector

So, in order to use multiple named placeholders with same name, you have to override this option in app/config/database.php, adding options parameter like this

    'mysql' => array(
        'driver'    => 'mysql',
        'host'      => 'localhost',
        'database'  => 'database',
        'username'  => 'root',
        'password'  => '',
        'charset'   => 'utf8',
        'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
        'prefix'    => '',
        'options'   => array(
            PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES => TRUE,
        ),
