Compass problem

Had my first successful flights, very stable,very happy, but I still have a Compass problem.I'm running ArduPiratesNG with a HMC5843 REV 1.2 compass mounted components down pins forward. When I try and calibrate it using the CLI I get a message 'Magneto module is not activated on the Arducopter.pde'The Compass is enabled on the configurator, it is enabled on the CLI. There is power on the Compass module and there are sensible signals on the SDA and SCL pins.I thought the problem may have been in the Config.h file which states to uncomment the #define IgMAG to activate the compass. When I uncomment this line I cannot upload the firmware because I get an error, see JPG.Does anybody have any idea's what I'm doing wrong.P.S I am computer ludite.
