In the first case I had to delete the page and recreate it before I could ever view it again. Even totally emptying out the page didn't change it.

In the second case the original user couldn't display the page, non-logged in users couldn't display the page, but I could. I added a space to the end of the file, and the original user could view it again, but non-logged in users still can't.

Trying parser cache wikidb:pcache:idhash:982-1!1!0!1!0!1!0!!en

Sounds like a problem with the parser cache; if it's really ending there it would seem to be dying somewhere during the cache load operation.

Are you using the default configuration, or did you pick the memcached or Turck MMCache options in installation?

Putting ?action=purge onto the URL should invalidate any entries on that page and may or may not help.

If it is a problem with the parser cache, you may be able to work around it by simply disabling the cache. Try setting in LocalSettings.php:

$wgEnableParserCache = false;

This may cause longer pages to load a bit more slowly.

These are pretty old versions of PHP and MySQL which don't receive as much active testing, so might be a problem specific to them...
