Solving simultaneous equations with fmincon (Error:Not enough input arguments / Supplied objective function must return a scalar value.)

Hi guys, I'm having a problem with solving a system of nonlinear equations using symbolic variables and fmincon. I tried to follow the guidance provided in this thread but I'm still not able to make it work.
This is my code (I have presented a simplified system of equations for the sake of simplicity.):
x=sym('x',[1 2]);
eqn_test=[x(1)+x(2)^2;x(2)-x(1)-6];
c_con=[];
ceq_con=eqn_test;
nonlcon = matlabFunction(c_con,ceq_con,[],[],'vars',x);
obj=@(x)0;
[soln1,error1] = fmincon(obj,[0 0],[],[],[],[],[-5 -5],[5 5],nonlcon,[]);
% Not enough input arguments.
% Error in
% symengine>@(x1,x2)deal(zeros(0,0),[x1+x2.^2;-x1+x2-6.0],zeros(0,0),zeros(0,0))
% Error in fmincon (line 633)
% [ctmp,ceqtmp] =
% feval(confcn{3},X,varargin{:});
% Caused by:
% Failure in initial nonlinear constraint
% function evaluation. FMINCON cannot continue.
eqn_test_fun=matlabFunction(ceq_con);
fun2 = @(f) eqn_test_fun(f(1),f(2));
[soln2,error2] = fmincon(fun2,[0 0],[],[],[],[],[-5 -5],[5 5],[],[]);
% Error using fmincon (line 619) Supplied objective function must return a scalar
% value.
I read that I should add a sum to my objective function but I don't know how to make it work. The code below returns the wrong solutions.
eqn_test_fun=matlabFunction(ceq_con);
fun2 = @(f) sum(eqn_test_fun(f(1),f(2)));
[soln3,error3] = fmincon(fun2,[0 0],[],[],[],[],[-5 -5],[5 5],[],[]);
% Local minimum found that satisfies the constraints.
%
% Optimization completed because the objective function is non-decreasing in
% feasible directions, to within the default value of the optimality tolerance,
% and constraints are satisfied to within the default value of the constraint tolerance.
%
% <stopping criteria details>
% soln3 =
%
% 0.0000 -0.5000
%
%
% error3 =
%
% -6.2500
Would you please help me correct my error? Thank you!
Edit: I tried adapting some code from the MATLAB documentation to work with symbolic variables (which I need because my equations are changing with every iteration, so I cannot write an equation to an m-file), but I have the same error:
x=sym('x',[2 1]);
F(1) = (x(1)+1)*(10-x(1))*(1+x(2)^2)/(1+x(2)^2+x(2));
F(2) = (x(2)+2)*(20-x(2))*(1+x(1)^2)/(1+x(1)^2+x(1));
fbnd=matlabFunction(F);
c_con = []; % No nonlinear inequality
ceq_con = fbnd(x(1),x(2)); % fsolve objective is fmincon nonlinear equality constraints
fminconstr = matlabFunction(c_con,ceq_con,[],[],'vars',x);
lb = [0,0]; % Lower bound constraint
rng default % Reproducible initial point
x0 = 100*randn(2,1);
opts = optimoptions(@fmincon,'Algorithm','interior-point','Display','off');
x = fmincon(@(x)0,x0,[],[],[],[],lb,[],fminconstr,opts)
% Not enough input arguments.
%
% Error in
% symengine>@(x1,x2)deal(zeros(0,0),[-((x2.^2+1.0).*(x1+1.0).*(x1-1.0e1))./(x2+x2.^2+1.0),-((x1.^2+1.0).*(x2+2.0).*(x2-2.0e1))./(x1+x1.^2+1.0)],zeros(0,0),zeros(0,0))

I think that you are making life hard for yourself by using symbolic variables instead of using plain numeric variables and functions. For example,
fun = @(x)[x(1)+x(2)^2;x(2)-x(1)-6];
x = fsolve(fun,[-1;2])
You say that for your application you must use symbolic variables, but I doubt that is true. If you can write a brief explanation of what you are trying to do, and why you think you need symbolic variables, then maybe we can show you how to do what you want.
