PHP exec to restart mysqld

I want to do something very very bad. I want to create a button that restarts mysqld. Why is irrelevant for my issue.

Here is my php script ...
Code:
<?php
if(isset($_POST['restart'])){
       	exec("sudo /etc/init.d/mysqld restart");        
}
?>
<form method="POST">
<input type="submit" name="restart" value="restart">
</form>

On any old server this usually can work. But on my locked down amazon ec2 server it doesn't. I tried putting this in the sudoers file but the button still doesn't restart mysqld.

Code:
Cmnd_Alias RESTART_APACHE = /etc/init.d/httpd restart
apache ALL =NOPASSWD: RESTART_APACHE

Cmnd_Alias RESTART_MYSQL = /etc/init.d/mysqld restart
apache ALL =NOPASSWD: RESTART_MYSQL

I'm stumped, at wits end, maybe someone here knows the solution ?

NAME
mysqld - the MySQL server SYNOPSIS
mysqld [options] DESCRIPTION
mysqld, also known as MySQL Server, is the main program that does most of the work in a MySQL installation. MySQL Server manages access to the MySQL data directory that contains databases and tables. The data directory is also the default location for other information such as log files and status files. When MySQL server starts, it listens for network connections from client programs and manages access to databases on behalf of those clients. The mysqld program has many options that can be specified at startup. For a complete list of options, run this command: shell> mysqld --verbose --help MySQL Server also has a set of system variables that affect its operation as it runs. System variables can be set at server startup, and many of them can be changed at runtime to effect dynamic server reconfiguration. MySQL Server also has a set of status variables that provide information about its operation. You can monitor these status variables to access runtime performance characteristics. For a full description of MySQL Server command options, system variables, and status variables, see Section 5.1, "The MySQL Server". For information about installing MySQL and setting up the initial configuration, see Chapter 2, Installing and Upgrading MySQL. COPYRIGHT
