cplex error 1217 :no solution exists.

Post by jang dong jun »

It's my code. but no answer there. they said problem is integer infeasible. but i cant understand what to do.
maybe lim7, lim8 has problem i think

Code: Select all

Hi,

Your model is (integer) infeasible. So there is no feasible point to all the constraints and integrality requirements you have specified. You either made a mistake implementing some constraint, or the combination of model and data really allows for no feasible solution. This state of the optimization model is in general not a bug or problem. It is one of the possible theoretic outcomes of an optimization run: optimal/infeasible/unbounded.

The real work is to figure out where the infeasibility comes from. There is no single way of doing this. It very much depends on your knowledge and understanding of the original problem and it's implementation as a model. Often, agood way to go about analyzing infeasibilities is to provide a solution to the problem you expect to be feasible by manually setting the variable level values (x.l(i,j) = ...) and then generating the model with a full equation listing (https://www.gams.com/latest/docs/UG_GAM ... ionListing) (option limrow=1e9;) This will flag the constraints that are infeasible with your "feasible" solution. Apparently, that might not be possible if you have a large and complex model.

If you don't want to work with your own feasible solution, you can ask Cplex to provide you with the smallest set of constraints that are infeasible (you need to change the model type to rmip) via the iis option (see https://www.gams.com/latest/docs/S_CPLEX.html#CPLEXiis). You can also ask Cplex you give you the smallest relaxation of your model to make it feasible (look for option FeasOpt: https://www.gams.com/latest/docs/S_CPLE ... LEXfeasopt ).

Btw. The issue cannot be reproduced by other forum users because you did not provide the xlsx input files.

I hope this helps!

Fred
