Pleasehelp me solve the problem with creating a cluster.

I am not sure that anyone will be able to help you given this amount
of information. You say that "the versions do not match," but you
don't tell us what the error message was, or the other version number.
If you're seeing two actually different version numbers, like 18.1 in
one place and something else in another places, then almost certainly
that other version is still installed someplace. If both version
numbers are 18.1 but there's an error message claiming that 18.1 is
not the same as 18.1, then you should show us the specific error
message and the command that provoked it (plus your PATH).
