How exactly do you start boincmgr?

Did you start boincmgr from the same directory where boinc is running, As 
suggested by the error message? Boincmgr is looking for the file 
gui_rpc_auth.cfg in the current directory, i.e. if you have installed 
boinc into ~/BOINC then

cd $HOME; BOINC/boincmgr

will not work, but

cd $HOME/BOINC; ./boincmgr

will.
