Problem with NMinimize - continuous and discrete variables

Dear Mathematica experts, I have a problem with the optimization of the objective Z depending on continuous and discrete variables. The error that occurs constantly is "The following constraints are not valid: ..... Constraints should be equalities, inequalities, or domain specifications involving the variables." I read a lot about this problem, but as far as I understand each of the cases is individual. If the constraints are incompatible, shouldn't a message be displayed that they are not being satisfied? As far as I understand the mentioned error message, the constraints have not been entered correctly. Please, help me understand what the problem is. Thank you in advance.

PS: In vars list b and r are Integers.
