Unbounded problem not correctly identified

[datejada]

Hi HiGHS team,

The attached .lp file in this .zip file unbounded-problem.zip has a MIP problem that it is unbounded, but HiGHS fails to detect it before going into the B&B, and then after a couple of iterations it freezes and no extra information is given (e.g., warning or error). We detected that the problem was unbounded due to the variables flow_(ccgt,_demand),_2030,XXX,YYY. Although the root cause is a problem in the data of the problem, it would be interesting to get a message from the solver indicating the unbounded condition from the start. Below is all the information to reproduce the error:

  [87dc4568] HiGHS v1.9.3
  [4076af6c] JuMP v1.23.2

using HiGHS

model = read_from_file("unbounded-problem.lp")
set_optimizer(model, HiGHS.Optimizer)
