I'm running the x86_64 version of Arch and I'm wanting to install Wine so I added
[multilib]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
to the end of my pacman.conf file. When I tried to sync the database this happened:
[*****@Arch-Desktop ~]$ sudo pacman -Syy
error: config file /etc/pacman.d/mirrolist could not be read.
:: Synchronizing package databases...
core 36.2K 419.4K/s 00:00:00 [##########] 100%

community 372.9K 702.3K/s 00:00:01 [##########] 100%
error: failed to update multilib (no servers configured for repository)
I read online that maybe updating the mirrorlist would fix it but it didn't. I ended up commenting out the multilib lines that I added to pacman.conf and it went back to syncing normally without any errors.
I'm needing Wine for the multilib repo so how do I get it working?

You get it working by having the two lines quoted above in pacman.conf, and a valid server in your mirrorlist.
Have a looks at this line:
error: config file /etc/pacman.d/mirrolist could not be read.
You should be able to fix this yourself, if not please post pacman.conf and mirrorlist.

the error is in pacman.conf. paste it.
looking more closely, you have a typo. error: config file /etc/pacman.d/mirrolist could not be read.

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Thanks for pointing that out.
Sorry for the stupid mistake.
