Solved Cubecart MemCached error Open_BaseDir Restriction

Upon first install of CubeCart 6.0.6 on windows with apache and zpanel, you may receive the following warnings and errors at the beginning of the install and at the top of every cart/html page, as well as admin panel, following the install:

Warning: file_exists(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(C:\php\pear/memcached.class.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (c:/zpanel/hostdata/username/public_html/your_domain;c:/windows/temp) in C:\zpanel\hostdata\username\public_html\your_domain\classes\autoloader.class.php on line 89 Warning: file_exists(): open_basedir restriction in effect.

Solution.  If memcached is not installed on your server, force “file” cache by adding the following line to the includes/global, inc:

$glob[‘cache’] = ‘file’;

That should be your solution.  I restarted apache, cleared my cache under maintenance in the admin dashboard, and then reloaded my website homepage.  Surprise, no warning or errors:
