CAM build failed

When I attempt to build CCSM, I can get the Land, Ocean, Atm, and CPL to build fine. However, I run into problems with CAM.

Little bit of background:
I am receiving an error that CAM cannot stat my DMS emissions file, which means I don't have the file! I contacted the friendly people over at UCAR, and they were going to see if they could find that file for me. When she spoke to the CAM people, they suggested that I have Prognostic Aerosols turned on, when it should be disabled.

I have been looking all over to figure out how to disable this, but I can't seem to find what file this setting is in. Anyone have any ideas where this may reside?

Thanks for the help!

CSEG and Liaisons
The CAM build does not depend on the DMS emissions file. If the problem is a missing file then this will result in a run time failure, not a build failure. It would be helpful to see the log output that actually indicates the failure.

Note that running with prognostic sulfur cycle was the standard way to run ccsm3 for many of the AR4 runs. If the compset you're using has the prognostic sulfur cycle enabled, then I see no reason why you should need to disable it.
