      I am unable to reproduce the errors (on linux).<br>
      <br>
      Crash.lp says it is infeasible - even just using clp to solve
      continuous.  With scaling it says there is an infeasibility of
      5.0e-5 while with scaling off there are two summing to 0.002 which
      might be easier to track down.  I suspect tiny infeasibilities are
      the reason you got the messages with preprocessing.<br>
      <br>
      If you can track down infeasibility, it may be worth adding extra
      variables or relaxing rhs to keep feasible - and then you might be
      able to go back to using preprocessing.<br>
      <br>
      Erreur.lp looks alright (although coefficients of -1.0e15 are not
      healthy - but I think they transfer to objective).<br>
