Problem with Constrained Optimization with nonlinear constraints

Hello,
I am trying to do the following constrained optimization in matlab using the fmincon and nonlinear constraint.
max μ'*x
subject to A*x ≤ b
x'*Σ*x ≤ s
μ'*x + inv(F(x)(0.05))*sqrt(x'*Σ*x) ≥ −β
-1 ≤ x ≤ 1
The x is a (3x1) matrix. The problem is that the fmincon cannot find any feasible solution that is satisfying the constraints. Is it because the x is a vector and not a scalar?
Any reply would be appreciated!
Thank you in advance, Porfyria

fmincon handles vector arguments such as x. This section of the documentation gives suggestions for dealing with the case when fmincon cannot find a feasible point.

Hello,
Thank you for your reply. I started with linprog but the solution it gives doesn't satisfy the linear constraints. Meaning: x:(3x1)
A: ones(1,3)
b = 1
A*x ≤ b
lb = [-1; -1; -1]
ub = [1; 1; 1]
x = [-0.9993; -0.9993; -0.9993]
Am I doing something wrong?
Thank you, Porfyria
I'm sorry, I do not understand what you mean. For the values of A and b and x that you give,
A*x = -2.9979 b.
And the bounds lb ≤ x ≤ ub are satisfied. So what is the problem?
