insmod error: hello_1: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module

I created a very basic module called hello_1 to test the building of modules. I built the module successfully, but when I try to load it with insmod it fails to load. The dmesg output was "hello_1: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module".

Anybody know what this means and how I can correct it?

seems like you build your module with a "wrong" kernel (means, the kernel you're using differs from that you've compiled the module)...

Well, I rebuild the kernel and tried loading it. When I attempt to boot with it all my pre-existings modules get the same error and the Kernel panics.
