I'm not sure I understand your problem? What I get from your post is that you have a directory named "build" as a sub-directory in /lib/modules/2.6.18-164.el5PAE/?? Is that correct? Without more information and what you did and how you did it, the only guess I have is that you make sure you use upper case letters, case sensitivity.

[root@server ~]# ls -ld /lib/modules/2.6.18-164.el5PAE/build
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 48 May 16 02:45 /lib/modules/2.6.18-164.el5PAE/build -> ../../../usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-164.el5-PAE-i686

It sounds like a broken symbolic link.

The directory of kernel headers (version 2.6.18-194.8.1.el5PAE) does not match
your running kernel (version 2.6.18-164.el5PAE). Even if the module were to
compile successfully, it would not load into the running kernel.
how can i find the real dir of my kernel? or how to run the new update of the kernel on my linux server?
