whatsapp_data_search_messages: {e}

Error message

whatsapp_data_search_messages: {e}

What it means

The native SEARCH_MESSAGES bus request to the WhatsApp data handler failed with a genuine handler error — handler-absent is matched separately and degrades to an empty result, so this error means the registered handler's search itself failed.
