how to solve modconfig fails on linux 8 (oel 8)

I downloaded and installed vm workstation but every time I try to launch it throws "before you can run vmware several modules but be compiled and loaded into the running kernel". Click install tries to run modconfig and the logs fail to detail which mods and why it can't compile beyond...

Cannot open file "/usr/lib/vmware/settings": No such file or directory.
Failed to find /lib/modules/5.4.17-2136.304.4.1.el8uek.x86_64/build/include/linux/version.h

[AppLoader] GLib does not have GSettings support.
