It seems that GVMd is not running, check your GVMd and the sockets and permissions of your installation.

Hi,

please get in touch with the maintainer of the used packages to get a upgrade path from OpenVAS/GVM-9 to the recent GVM-10.

Various migration steps are required for such an upgrade as documented below, if the packages doesn’t offer/doing these you might get into a non-working state of your setup.

Just for your information, the CentOS packets are not doing a upgrade as needed, so if you over-install 3rd party unsupported packets, i would suggest you restore your backup of your old installation and complain to your 3rd party packet provider for the broken packets.
So far closing here.
