VMware installation Problem in centos 5

hi all !

when i try to install VMware server in centos 5, i am getting thi error


None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Server is suitable for your
running kernel. Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon module for
your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [yes]

Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override.

What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include] (when i press enter)

The path "/usr/src/linux/include" is not an existing directory.

What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include] /usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-8.1.10.el5-i686/include

The directory of kernel headers (version 2.6.18-8.1.10.el5) does not match your
running kernel (version 2.6.18-8.el5xen). Even if the module were to compile
successfully, it would not load into the running kernel.

What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include] (what should i do ?)

i am new to linux so plz give step by step solutions.

Thanks

"Find out where the kernel headers is missing "


"to Check the running kernel matches the kernel headers in CentOS
run this command in terminal to verify if the kernel matches in kernel-devel after you install the gcc and kernel-devel."

uname -r # running kernel
rpm -q kernel-devel # installed kernel headers

"if not update ur kernel-devel this command"

yum -y upgrade kernel kernel-devel
reboot

type this command to compile in kernel C header include

ls -d /usr/src/kernels/$(uname -r)*/include


i think that command is lacking to install vmware in CentOS (linux)


ty..


hope it can help.
