This may seem like a duplicate but I have read the similar questions and tried what they suggested and it didn't work.
When I navigate to my CakePHP site I get the following errors
Warning (2): mkdir(): Permission denied [CORE/src/Cache/Engine/FileEngine.php, line 417]
Warning: file_put_contents(/var/www/html/my-application/logs/error.log) [function.file-put-contents]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /var/www/html/my-application/vendor/cakephp/cakephp/src/Log/Engine/FileLog.php on line 134
Warning (512): /var/www/html/my-application/tmp/cache/persistent/ is not writable [CORE/src/Cache/Engine/FileEngine.php, line 425]

The thing is I am sure that PHP has access to all the necessary files.
PHP runs as user apache, in group apache. Evidence:

Relevant directories are owned by apache:apache and have permissions set to 777 anyway:
[ec2-user@cv-stg01 my-application]$ ls -l
total 132
drwxrwxr-x. 2 apache apache 47 May 12 21:16 bin
-rw-rw-r--. 1 apache apache 1128 May 12 21:16 composer.json
-rw-rw-r--. 1 apache apache 93002 May 12 21:16 composer.lock
drwxrwxr-x. 3 apache apache 4096 May 12 21:19 config

drwxrwxr-x. 28 apache apache 4096 May 12 21:16 vendor
drwxrwxr-x. 9 apache apache 4096 May 12 21:16 webroot
Sub-directories in tmp/ have correct permissions too:
[ec2-user@cv-stg01 tmp]$ ls -l
total 0
drwxrwxrwx. 5 apache apache 48 May 12 21:16 cache
drwxrwxrwx. 2 apache apache 18 May 12 21:16 sessions
drwxrwxrwx. 2 apache apache 18 May 12 21:16 tests
I have also tried re-applying the permissions, just in case, using
sudo chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/my-application
sudo chmod -R 777 /var/www/html/my-application/tmp
sudo chmod -R 777 /var/www/html/my-application/logs
sudo chmod -R 777 /var/www/html/my-application/tests
And I have even logged in as apache and edited the files myself, with no issues
sudo su -s /bin/bash apache
vi /var/www/html/my-applciation/logs/error.log
I'm really struggling to work out what the issue could be now.
We have SELinux installed/enabled, so maybe that's causing issues?
Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

However, in my experience (CakePHP 2), those commands aren't enough. These commands give your webserver user access to the cache etc, but anything you run from the command line (like the cake command) will probably be running as your user rather than the webserver user.
This same error handler is used to catch Exceptions. Error handler displays errors when debug is true and logs error when debug is false. CakePHP has number of exception classes and the built in exception handling will capture any uncaught exception and render a useful page.
1. Start the terminal 2. sudo mkdir /var/www/cakephp 3.sudo cp -r ~/cakephp/* /var/www/cakephp Open file /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default and change AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All I opened my browser and typed address http://localhost/cakephp/ and I seaw this error message: Are you sure step #4 did anything?
When true, exceptions + their stack traces will be logged to Cake\Log\Log. An array of exception class names that should not be logged. This is useful to remove NotFoundExceptions or other common, but uninteresting logs messages. Set to the number of megabytes to increase the memory limit by, when a fatal error is encountered.
Try this:
chown -R apache.apache /path/to/html/
chmod -R 777 /path/to/html/
Then restart httpd service:
service httpd restart
