Warning: Unable to find symbolic solution.
Dot indexing is not supported for variables of this type.

Error in sym/subsref (line 902)
R_tilde = builtin('subsref',L_tilde,Idx);

Next thing to note is that you cannot provide two boundary conditions for the same function differential order. f(0)==0, fine by itself. f(1)==1, fine by itself. f(0)==0 and f(1)==1 together, will not work. The boundary conditions are used only to try to find a value for the constant of integration, and the code cannot reason about them further than that.
But in your case, it does not matter: even if you remove the boundary conditions, the system is too hard for MATLAB to solve.

Thanks

for your valuable suggestion. I think because of hghly nonlinearity, dsolve is unable to solve. Any way, I have solved with bvp code.

The issues are here
f1=F1.f;
g1=F1.g;
h1=F1.h;
Here, lets say for first line of the code
f1=F1.f;
Whre F1 is the sym variable with size 1x4, whereas f is the sym function
>> whos F1
Name Size Bytes Class Attributes
F1 1x4 8 sym
>> whos f
Name Size Bytes Class Attributes
f 1x1 8 symfun
What exactly are you trying to do in these lines?
Variable Access??

Assign values for above variables instead of symbolic variables,
As you are using only three equations, with 3 unknowns in x, f, g, h
Then you can solve it,

dsolve expects, as many equations as the number of symoblic variables that constitute equations.

Try with ode45 function
