An MWE is a minimum working (or “workable”) example; so a code that contains the essential features of your issue, is runnable and reproduces the problem you are facing. See also here: [Please read: make it easier to help you](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/please-read-make-it-easier-to-help-you/14757)

Anyhow, in your case: have you started the optimization from a point that fulfills the constraints or not? If not, that would be my starting guess of what’s wrong. Or, of course, the problem may not be correctly specified (i.e. you are actually trying to solve something else than what you think)
