Please take a look at the Install file in your source.

You must have read+write+execute permissions for
fileadmin/
typo3temp/
typo3conf/
uploads/

and at least read and execute permissions for
typo3/
index.php

You should not use 777 as permissions, but instead learn how permissions are 
used on Unix-style file systems and how you need to configure your server.
Ideally you have 700 for the first folders and 500 for the second set.

But this depends on your server configuration.

For CentOS, it should be like for Fedora. I do not know what the default 
webserver user is (I always change it), but I think it is apache or apache2.

You need to change the owner of your files and folders to your webserver 
user via $ chown apache:apache <path>
Then you can go ahead and change the permissions to 750 and 640.

Best regards
