SELinux is preventing httpd from create access

[Mahmood Naderan]

Hi,
Whenever I upload a file via my web browser to my web sever, I see the following lines in /var/log/messages

Nov  8 12:18:24 sn setroubleshoot: SELinux is preventing httpd from create access on the file temp_5be3f85348052_5be3f85347985.docx. For complete SELinux messages run: sealert -l 335e7781-6a68-4ca6-827f-073f93829f2d

While the format is ugly, I run sealert -l 335e7781-6a68-4ca6-827f-073f93829f2d and see

SELinux is preventing httpd from create access on the file temp_5be3f85348052_5be3f85347985.docx.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that httpd should be allowed create access on the temp_5be3f85348052_5be3f85347985.docx file by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# ausearch -c 'httpd' --raw | audit2allow -M my-httpd
# semodule -i my-httpd.pp

Hash: httpd,httpd_t,user_home_t,file,create

I do run two commands and everything sounds normal:

# ausearch -c 'httpd' --raw | audit2allow -M my-httpd
******************** IMPORTANT ***********************
To make this policy package active, execute:

semodule -i my-httpd.pp

# semodule -i my-httpd.pp
#

However, once again and after uploading the file, I see those messages in the log again and again.

How to fix that?
