Equality contrains ignored by fmincon

I use fmincon to minize a function with 250 variables. Some variables are dependent, but the degree of freedom is still very high. I put equality constrains to fix some varibles to constants. When I run fmincon, I received the following error from Matlab
"Solver stopped prematurely.
fmincon stopped because it exceeded the function evaluation limit,
options.MaxFunctionEvaluations = 3.000000e+03."
I checked the premature x variable. It did not meet the equality constrains at all. The elements that were set to zeros all are non-zero number. I am wondering what would be possible causes? The equality constrains seem so straight forward, but still ignored by fmincon. Could someone advise me please?

This looks strange. Just 100 zero variables? What is the point?
for i=1:100
Aeq(i,i)=1;
end

I hope u can use this code, i too have the same problem while solving the problem with 130 variables and nearly 200 constraints, but when i used this it worked fine with me... if u want further details, u cann contact me through watsapp +91 7893397808 or try it by urself. It will work for sure
opts = optimoptions('fmincon','Display','iter','MaxFunctionEvaluations',10e+10);
problem = createOptimProblem('fmincon','objective',obj2,'x0',your_initial_point,'lb',LB,'ub',UB,'nonlcon',constraints1,'options',opts);
ms = GlobalSearch;
[x,f] = run(ms,problem);

You cannot use the Aeq, beq constraint parameters to force exact equality. You could instead try setting the upper and lower bounds,
lb(1:100)=0;
ub(1:100)=0;
but if you are reaching the function evaluation limit, it may be that a feasible solution with the parameters you've set to zero simply does not exist.

You should be mindful that all of the constraints (except usually the bounds) are subject to the ConstraintTolerance parameter listed here,
