You want to use reload instead of restart in your script. Reload allows
all the current apache processes finish before restarting, where restart
just kills everything and your script really doesn't get a chance to
finish.
That being said, doing something like this is very dangerous in this way.
I wouldn't suggest using something like this at all. Its an extremely
easy way to keep your server offline or much worse.
