Pacman not functioning in Arch

Currently in a fresh install of arch linux and I have been trying to install some stuff with pacman. Every operation returns multiple errors such as no address record when using -Sy and unable to retrieve file when trying to install something. I have tried so many different configurations of pacman.conf and pacman.d/mirrors and none have worked. What should it look like, or how should I fix it? Currently running in virtualbox ose.

pacman - the game of pacman SYNOPSIS
pacman [grey] DESCRIPTION
Pacman is an old action game. You are Pacman, and you are supposed to eat all the small dots to get to the next level. You are also supposed to keep away from the ghosts, if they take you, you lose one life, unless you have eaten a large dot, then you can, for a limited amount of time, chase and eat the ghosts. There is also bonus available, for a limited amount of time. An X gives just points, but a little pacman gives an extra life. You use either keyboard or mouse. Default from start is keyboard. Keyboard mode: To move use arrows, to quit, press q, to use mouse, press m. Mouse mode: To move, move mouse, to quit, press RButton, to use keyboard, press LButton. Details: When pacman has moved to a new place, if you want it to change it's moving direction, hit key/move mouse until it has moved. OPTIONS
grey To start in grey mode instead of the default color. ENVIRONMENT
DISPLAY To get default display. AUTHOR
