IClassFactory failed due to the following error: 800a0153

Question

I am trying to refer to a lump component and it throws the following error.

Creating an instance of a COM component with CLSID {xxx} from IClassFactory failed because of the following error: 800a0153.

In particular, an error occurs when trying to create an instance of an object. I checked that

• Project built for x86 processors that
• The com object is registered with regsvr32 and is available in the registry.

I also see methods in the object browser, so I know that .net finds this.

Any ideas on what I am missing?

This is the error code specific to the component. Unless you have documentation that explains what code can mean, you will need support from the provider.
