Use solve function and return with [0*1 sym]

Hi all,

I want to solve an eqation eq=s-((s - w)*(r + 1)^(1 - 1/y))/b^(1/y)==0

I use solve function in that:

solve(eq,s)

The Matlab, however, return with:

w: [0×1 sym]

y: [0×1 sym]

I just want to solve a basic mathmatical problem and don't know how to display the results that I want (put s on the left hand side of equation)

Thanks for your time.

syms s w r y b
eq = s-((s - w)*(r + 1)^(1 - 1/y))/b^(1/y)==0 ;
sol = solve(eq,s)
