It looks like the gui_rpc_port issue.
Starting both client & manager with below setting seemed to fix the problem:
boinc --gui_rpc_port 31316
boincmgr --gui_rpc_port 31316

If boinc uses or should use port 31416 that seems reserved for some other purposes (see /etc/services -file):
xqosd 31416/tcp # XQoS network monitor
xqosd 31416/udp # XQoS network monitor

I could not find the boinc startup files to set the port as 31316 or to make whatever setting is needed...

Yes, BOINC default port is 31416. So if other services already use that port, either BOINC or the other service needs to be moved to another port address.
