You model is reaching the error threshold otherwise you would be receiving an 'actual' error message. You model is just converging very quickly. If you want to see the error reducing, change lifesign="minimal" to lifesign="full" and set the lifesign.step=1 to make it very verbose for this model.
Alternatively you could just look at winequal$result.matrix and you will see how many steps were taken to reach the threshold as well as the reached.threshold your model finished on.
