Thread:Project:Support desk/MediaWiki not updating changes made in LocalSettings.php

Product Version MediaWiki 1.16.2 PHP 5.1.6 (apache2handler) MySQL 5.0.77

I have a working setup of mediawiki where I was able to restrict anonymous access and change the logo and all the basic stuff. And now I'm coming back after configuring it a few weeks ago to add a user group, and add some new users, yet whenever I make any changes to LocalSettings.php it isn't being reflected on the actual website. I have tried clearing my cache, different browsers, even had other users try it on their computers. I also removed LocalSettings.php out of the media wiki folder and the website operated like nothing had changed. I am quite confused why it suddenly stopped working. Any ideas would be helpful.

Thanks.
