This is in the preceding El Capitan Beta (15A278b). I found lots of references with google to hanging app stores but none of the fixes apply to me.
What happens is simple. I click on the App Store and the spinner spins indefinitely. I have tried:
- Rebooting
- Using the "debug" menu in app store, reset the app, clear cookies
- Killing the softwareupdated process
- Running softwareupdate -l, which says "no new software available"
All and in different order and combinations.
Any tips? Thanks!

Tried the ideas above, none worked. Tried them repeatedly.
What did work? Doing a Safe Boot, and updating to El Cap Release Candidate. After that all seems fine again.
