--- Comment #8 from Giuseppe Della Bianca <giusdbg at gmail.com> ---
I had a very similar problem.
The main problem is that the akonadi server doesn't report the path to the
database with problems.

This is how I solved it

- Stop akonadi
for example:
akonadictl stop
akonadictl status

- Stop baloo
for example:
ps -ef | grep -i balo
xxx 7653 3297 0 08:54 ? 00:00:00 /usr/libexec/baloorunner
kill -9 7653
ps -ef | grep -i balo

- Removes the akonadi and baloo search databases
~/.local/share/akonadi/search_db/
~/.local/share/baloo/

- Restart akonadi and baloo (preferably a system reboot)

- Force rebuilding the indexing
For example, from the akonadi console
Find and select the indexing agent
Put it offline
Put it online

WARNING, This procedure should only affect indexing, but there's always a risk
of data loss, you should have a backup and know how to restore it.
