Sorry for the delayed response. And you were absolutely right, my user account was not a part of the bureaucrat group. I really didn't know anything about users and groups and how they were managed in mediawiki before this happened. But I found this script on the mediawiki site called 'createAndPromote.php'. Running that I gave my user the right group membership to see the special memcached page. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:CreateAndPromote.php Thanks for your input!
