# Problem: Package phpcbf is unavailable When starting [[spacemacs]] I was getting the following errors: > Package php-auto-yasnippets is unavailable. Is the package name misspelled? > Package phpcbf is unavailable. Is the package name misspelled? It's discussed here: https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/issues/14381 They seem to have been removed from Melpa. I can stop the errors by adding the package names to `dotspacemacs-excluded-packages` in .spacemacs. I don't know if it will cause any problems with PHP - we'll see. Someone there suggests moving to lsp backend for PHP - I could try that at some point.
