[CentOS] After reboot of web-server accessing website shows "Forbidden", restarting httpd all is fine

Hi.

I am stuck with this one and I do not know where and how to search for this problem nor do I know how to fix it.

When I reboot one of our servers (CentOS 6.7, selinux target, yum fully updated) the http server loads fine (no erros) but when accessing one of the server's websites it displays "Forbidden", restarting the httpd server (command line) will give full access and all is fine.

What troubles me that a simple restart of the daemon fixes everything but it does not come up on reboot.

I started it with an strace but I cant find anything that looks suspicious ...

Putting selinux into permissive mode starts the server right from boot.
Looking at all the logs I cannot see anything.

Any ideas?
