Hi, uname -a output : Linux BLR-PCUB-01141 4.5.0-rc7 #2 SMP Wed Mar 23 15:51:13 IST 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux And my modinfo of my module is : icense: Dual BSD/GPL srcversion: 1D16256F51E63BC3632B65B depends: vermagic: 4.5.0-rc7+ SMP mod_unload modversions 686 So both are machining, what could be the problem?

Type uname -a on the box where you try the insmod. If it says anything else than 4.0.5-rc7+ for the kernel version then this is the reason why insmod fails.

They do not match. 'uname -a': says 4.5.0-rc7. Whereas your original post said: 4.0.5_rc7+.
