You are trying to execute rc-service compiled for a different architecture. Post the output of:
Code: [Select]
grep '^\[' /etc/pacman.conf
uname -a
file /usr/bin/rc-service
pacman -Qi openrc
As a general note, avoid packages from AUR, AUR helpers and graphical package managers, as they don't respect normal package management and tend to create problems.

In the future, please use code tags for command output.

Can you give the output of (using /bin/bash):
Code: [Select]
command -v {rc-service,dhcpcd,openrc-run,supervise-daemon}
sha256sum /usr/bin/{rc-service,dhcpcd,openrc-run,supervise-daemon}
