Hey man,
Are you sure you actually have the permission to do it? Looking at the
code, the extension only grants the 'memcached' permission to the 'bureaucrat' group. Is your user account a bureaucreat? You can check or change this using the Special:UserRights page on your wiki.
You can also change it to grant the permission to all administrators, by adding `$wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['memcached'] = true;` in your LocalSettings.php. (See https://www.mediawiki .org/wiki/Manual:User_rights#List_of_groups)
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.

Thanks for your input!
