augeas not recognizing file in tmp directory - amazon-ec2

Question

I am having issue with Augeas on my redhat ec2. I recently started using this API, so far used only for changes in /etc/ directory.
Here is OS that I used.
OS: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.4 (Santiago)
what I have found recently is augtool is not recognizing any files other than files in /etc/ and /boot/.
for example:augtool> print /files/tmp/sample/test.cfg will not give any result.
test.cfg
[Credentials]
Keys = True
For testing purposes I moved this file from /tmp/ to /etc/httpd/conf.d/, but augeas still not printing contents of it. Where are it print config tree of my apache config file.
I am trying to put them in puppet, here is my code:
augeas {"changeTest" :
context => "/files/tmp/sample/test.cfg",
changes => "set Credentials/Keys False"
}
This is what I saw in my puppet debug:
Debug: Augeas[changeTest](provider=augeas): sending command 'set' with params ["/files/tmp/sample/test.cfg/Credentials/Keys", "False"]
Debug: Augeas[changeTest](provider=augeas): Skipping because no files were changed
What I am doing wring here?

Answer 1

Augeas doesn't "recognize" files, or knows the standard paths of these files. /tmp is not a standard location for any configuration file, so augeas cannot know what to do.
In Puppet, you can tell augeas which lens (I.e. parser) to use for a given file:
augeas {"changeTest" :
incl => "/tmp/sample/test.cfg",
lens => "Httpd.lns",
changes => "set Credentials/Keys False",
}
