Mediawiki .../wiki/Special:Version and other pages redirecting - mediawiki

Question

Ok, super novice messing with Mediawiki for the first time from a fresh set-up perspective. I've installed version 1.25.2 and am running pretty barebones right now. I'm trying to access my local install's .../wiki/Special:Version page to just get the details and see the list of extensions via GUI.
My wiki is served up fine. I can get to mediawiki itself, what I'm trying to access are the "admin" type pages that are typically served up via .../wiki/... like this: mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Version I can get to my localhost:port/ just fine and hit media wiki. when I try to hit localhost:port/wiki/... that is what redirects me back to the index page of the wiki
Every time I try to hit this page (or any other page under .../wiki/..) it redirects me back to the home page.
My user has the sysops and bureaucrat roles.
Am I completely missing something here?
Here are the details of my Apache2.conf:

Answer 1

Ok, this was all on me. I was trying to access these pages via localhost:port/wiki/Special:Version when I need to actually hit localhost:port/index.php/Special:Version.
So yes, leo was correct, thanks.
