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

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
