Thanks Olaf
The documentation actually states that that those must be column vectors,
see https://octave.sourceforge.io/optim/function/fmincon.html
I have now made sure that mine are column vectors but I still get same
message, therefore I have changed my code to use nonlin_min, but I want to
maintain Matlab compatibility to avoid two sets of code. I am new at Octave
and I love Octave.
And to be complete, I use Octave 5.2 on Win10 and optim is version 1.6.0.

The 'fmincon' in Octaves optim package requires x0, x0_lb, and x0_ub to be
column vectors. This is probably a bug, since Matlabs 'fmincon'
seems to accept arbitrary arrays at least for x0. You may want to file a bug
report so I don't forget to deal with the issue.
