Hey,

Can I restart my php/apache2 service without affecting mySQL? (Need to restart because myBB is acting up)

Thanks!
Yeah you should be able to however you shouldn't need to restart. How is it acting up?
You should be able to restart it but the site would be down whilst it's doing that, shouldn't take very long though... how is it 'acting up'...??
I can /etc/init.d/php5 restart without affecting / shutting down mySQL? Cause I have a game server that's using mySQL and I don't wanna shut it down.
Well, you still haven't said why you think you need to restart it, if you tell us what's actually wrong, you might not need to restart anything...
I changed the upload_max thing in php.ini because a script is larger than 1M.
I am pretty sure you need to restart httpd, not PHP (or maybe both)

/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart
will that interrupt and disconnect mysql?
It shouldn't interrupt or disconnect - simply because mySQL is a seperate service.
