IDS_MON_ILLEGAL_PASSTHROUGH

IDS_MON_ILLEGAL_PASSTHROUGH indicates that the submitted command is trying to use a pass-through query form that the catalog parser does not accept. This is a query-shape problem, not a failure to reach a remote SQL server. Windows Search has its own SQL dialect for querying the search catalog.

Use the search catalog grammar directly

Log whether a generic OLE DB query layer wrapped the search text in a PASSTHROUGH construct.
Generate a normal SELECT against SystemIndex and express matching in the Windows Search WHERE clause.
Keep SQL Server, Access, and Windows Search dialect selection separate in shared query-builder code.

The current Windows Search syntax explicitly describes SELECT and GROUP ON ... OVER query forms and uses SystemIndex as the catalog. A provider abstraction that emits pass-through syntax for other data sources should not reuse that branch for the search provider. Retrying the unchanged command or rebuilding the index cannot make an unsupported statement form valid.
