Important: help with pdepe used in a system of pdes and odes...

Hi, for simulation purpose I try to solve a system of nine differential equations where from the first three are ode's (t) and the others are pde's (t,z). They are all coupled and I try to solve them with pdepe. I get the following error message:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

??? Error using ==> daeic12 at 77
This DAE appears to be of index greater than 1.

Error in ==> ode15s at 389
    [y,yp,f0,dfdy,nFE,nPD,Jfac] = daeic12(odeFcn,odeArgs,t,ICtype,Mt,y,yp0,f0,...

Error in ==> pdepe at 317
  [t,y] = ode15s(@pdeodes,t,y0,opts);

Error in ==> Simulation at 29
sol = pdepe(m,@pdefun,@pdex4ic,@pdex4bc,x,t);

What do I have to change to make to programm running?
