Thanks Rob,
I ran both scripts listed and all both seem to do is purge everything
from the Category pages but not put anything back in them. My wiki
isn't too large (about 250 pages) so running these scripts doesn't take
long.
Right now none of my pages belong to any Categories and before I ran the
script they all did. I could go through one page at a time and resave
everything but I'm hoping there is another less tedious solution.
The user account in my AdminSettings.php is my wiki user and that user
has full permissions on the database. Should I be using a different
user in there, sysop perhaps?
Thanks,
Dylan

Running maintenance/rebuildAll.php *should* have run
maintenance/refreshLinks.php, which performs a full link table update
for all pages on the wiki, so it sounds like something went a bit
wrong.
You could attempt to run maintenance/refreshLinks.php and see if it
corrects the problem. It can take some time for a large wiki.
