Value Message
0 the solution is optimal.
100 suboptimal primal solution.
101 superoptimal (dual feasible) solution.
150 the solution is near optimal.
200 primal infeasible problem.
300 dual infeasible problem.
400 too many iterations.
500 solution status is unknown.
501 ill-posed problem, solution status is unknown.
≥ 501 The value - 501 is a MOSEK response code.
See Appendix 10 for all MOSEK response codes.

when the AMPL shell has started type the commands:
ampl: model diet.mod;
ampl: data diet.dat;
ampl: option solver mosek;
ampl: solve;
The resulting output is:
MOSEK finished.
Problem status - PRIMAL AND DUAL FEASIBLE
Solution status - OPTIMAL
Primal objective - 14.8557377
Dual objective - 14.8557377
Objective = Total Cost
3.4 Determining the outcome of an optimization
The AMPL parameter solve result num is used to indicate the outcome of the optimization process.
It is used as follows
ampl: display solve result num
Please refer to table 3.1 for possible values of this parameter.
3.5 Optimizer options
3.5.1 The MOSEK parameter database
The MOSEK optimizer has options and parameters controlling such things as the termination criterion
and which optimizer is used. These parameters can be modified within AMPL as shown in the example
