" fmincon stopped because the size of the current step is less than the default value of the step size tolerance but constraints are not satisfied to within the default value of the constraint tolerance "

If you provide reproducible code, i.e., all input data, options, etc., perhaps someone can offer more concrete help.

As has been previously suggested, poor scaling may be at least part of your problem. But another possibility is that you are using incorrect derivatives (gradient of constraint and maybe objective function). Are you supplying gradients, or is it using numerical differentiation? Have you used the derivative check option (actually, I'm not sure that checks constraint gradient, though).

It may also be the case that you can succeed from a different starting point. In general, you may have better luck with tricky constraints if you use the active-set, or maybe better yet, SQP algorithm than the other algorithms.

Can you show the output using iter-detailed?

Hi, I had downloaded a code from File exchange http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/40504, and it had been executed efficiently first time. When I tried to re-execute it again, I faced an error message:

Local minimum possible. Constraints satisfied.
fmincon stopped because the size of the current step is less than the default value of the step size tolerance and constraints are satisfied to within the default value of the constraint tolerance.

I am not sure how I can show you the result file, so I'll be thankful if you sent your email to attache the result file in order review the error message.

Best Regards
