Unable to connect to BOINC Client

[LimesKey]

I'm having trouble getting FindTheMag2 to successfully connect to boinc-client, with or without the correct password in the user_config.py. I started boinc-client by running sudo systemctl start boinc-client, and when I start the boincmgr GUI, the boinc manager can successfully see and connect to the client.

Here's a snippet of the commands I ran,

❯ curl --data-binary "<auth1>c13a45ab5a7bb7c4e8af41d583469c21</auth1><query_projects/>" http://127.0.0.1:31416

/home/limeskey/Desktop/FindTheMag2/main.py:4936: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\|'
  ----      _ ___/ /\|
Error connecting to BOINC client, unable to get project list.

I wonder if this is some kind of Linux user permission issue? For context, I've downloaded boinc 8.2.8 off the Arch package manager along with gridcoinresearch-qt from the AUR and patched the Boost library issue with gridcoinresearch-qt. I'm using EndeavourOS
