I think this not works cause of group permisions.
Perhaps you need to create a new user in a new html group and map their
home in /home/html and set the group ownership of /home/html to the
group of this new user.
Some like this:
adduser -g html -d /home/html -M -n html_up
chown -R .html /home/html
chmod -R g+w /home/html
