This can be fixed by running the following commands: yum install policycoreutils-python semanage semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_content_t "/newdir(/.*)?" restorecon -R /newdir
Recently, I tried to change the default Apache directory /var/www and encountered:
You don't have permission to access /newdir/ on this server.
Here's how to fix it:

semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_content_t "/newdir(/.*)?"
restorecon -R -v /newdir
