Wordpress media upload issue on AWS EFS

I have mounted AWS EFS on a directory created on root as staging. I checked with df -h it is showing as mounted. I then created a symlink as

ln -snf /staging /var/www/html/wp/wp-content/uploads

I made sure there was not upload folder before making a symlink.However when I try to upload media in wp-admin then I got the error as - Unable to create directory wp-content/uploads/2018/08. Is its parent directory writable by the server?

I am not sure why this error coming, though I have chmod all directories to 775 and files to 664, even ownership as apache:apache on all. Can someone guide me what could be the issue?

Finally I figured it out. Actually the staging folder on which I had mounted my EFS should be writable by apache user. I chown that directory with chown www-data:www-data staging and the problem is solved.
