You mean the file  you want to write to is not in /var/log?

With SELinux enabled, the directory the file lives in must be labeled
with system_u:object_r:var_log_t and the file itself with
root:object_r:var_log_t (or user_u:object_r:var_log_t, depending on the
file).  Either change the label by hand or add an appropriate line to
the file_contexts file.

If you're not familiar with SELinux, read the release notes and the
other information pointed to in this document.
