dash

I've Ubuntu 12.10.1 LTS x62 fresh of installation... My dash is empty, search doesn't work and applications list is empty.

If I run the Ubuntu Software Center it freeze in a blank screen.

I tried with:

restart
reinstall of unity packages
deleting ~/.local/share/zeitgeist folder
other tricks found in the other askubuntu answers

UPDATE:

From ~/.xsession-errors

I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/home/francesco/.compiz/session/10699c9c27649d05db134910329935534100000027470033"
Initializing session options...done

(compiz:2813): GConf-CRITICAL **: gconf_client_add_dir: assertion `gconf_valid_key (dirname, NULL)' failed

** (zeitgeist-datahub:3070): WARNING **: zeitgeist-datahub.vala:227: Unable to get name "org.gnome.zeitgeist.datahub" on the bus!

EDIT:

Deleting .cache folder solves the Ubuntu Software Center blank screen issue, thanks to jokerdino!!
