### Apache Iceberg version 1.8.0 (latest release) ### Query engine Spark ### Please describe the bug 🐞 I appreciate the new rewriteTablePath method to support migrating metadata, but I have problems with using local "file://..." references. My metadata currently references files using elements like `"location":"file://iceberg_catalog/metrics.db/data_points","table-uuid":..."` to represent a relative path from a project root. Attempting ``` String oldPrefix = "file://iceberg_catalog/metrics.db/"; String newPrefix = "s3://<bucket_path>"; Table table = TABLES.load("iceberg_catalog/metrics.db/data_points/metadata/00003-fb8660aa-1565-4241-b648-10cbf53a8208.metadata.json"); actions() .rewriteTablePath(table) .rewriteLocationPrefix(oldPrefix, newPrefix) .execute(); ``` The Table reference is successful but the metadata rewrite fails. I get error logged below: ``` {"ts":"2025-02-14T22:43:44.603Z","level":"INFO","msg":"Table location loaded: file://iceberg_catalog/metrics.db/data_points","logger":"HadoopTables"} Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Path iceberg_catalog/metrics.db/data_points/metadata/00003-fb8660aa-1565-4241-b648-10cbf53a8208.metadata.json does not start with file://iceberg_catalog/metrics.db/ at org.apache.iceberg.RewriteTablePathUtil.relativize(RewriteTablePathUtil.java:582) at org.apache.iceberg.RewriteTablePathUtil.newPath(RewriteTablePathUtil.java:559) ``` I suspect the problem is with the use of relative path or nonstandard `file://` rather than `file:///` but since this permeates the metadata I'm stuck. ( If I change the TABLES.load argument to begin `file://iceberg...` I get an error `expecting file:///..` ) ### Willingness to contribute - [ ] I can contribute a fix for this bug independently - [ ] I would be willing to contribute a fix for this bug with guidance from the Iceberg community - [x] I cannot contribute a fix for this bug at this time -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
