1. [Please read: make it easier to help you](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/please-read-make-it-easier-to-help-you/14757). It will help you get answers in this forum if you read this and follow its recommendations. For example, post code for a minimum working example rather than just describing your problem.
2. It’s too much to expect a nonlinear solver to find _all_ solutions. There is no upper bound on the number, location, narrowness, degree, etc of the roots of arbitrary nonlinear functions. Instead solvers typically find a single solution near a given initial guess. Try running NLSolver with an initial guess near the other solution.
3. Julia is sensitive to whitespace in a number of ways. You’ll need to provide more details (e.g. the code and where you changed whitespace) to get help on that.
