that sounds like SELinux

ls -lZ and you will find that the files you create in place have a
different security context than the ones you copied into place.

fixfiles relabel /var/www/html 
# might just work

touch /.autorelabel 
# and then reboot will relabel all copied files to the correct contexts
for the location

or you could turn off SELinux and reboot
