[SOLVED] Installing ArchLinux in VirtualBox problem

I have tried to install ArchLinux, following the official Guide and using this instruction for guest additions: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Vi … _Additions
And in the step:
modprobe -a vboxguest vboxsf vboxvideo
I get
modprobe: WARNING: Module vboxguest not found
modprobe: WARNING: Module vboxsf not found
modprobe: WARNING: Module vboxvideo not found

VBoxClient-all gives the output:
Failed to connect to the VirtualBox kernel service
five times

After searching in google, I have not found any actual working solution.

Can somebody advise me, how to find, why it happens?

Information about installation:
No custom kernel, following the Beginner Guide, VirtualBox and some tutorials on the web. All packages installed from official repository with pacman.
