Change author with calibredb

Hey

I am trying to add a space in the authors name:
Code:
root@1dce1a6e8ae1:/# calibredb --with-library=/books/ show_metadata 5032
Title               : Connections in Death
Title sort          : Connections in Death
Author(s)           : J.D. Robb [Robb, J.D.]
Publisher           : St. Martin's Press
Series              : In Death #48
Languages           : eng
Timestamp           : 2021-07-01T07:08:39+00:00
Published           : 2019-02-05T00:00:00+00:00
Identifiers         : isbn:9781250201577, goodreads:40122012

root@1dce1a6e8ae1:/# calibredb --with-library=/books/ set_metadata 5032 --field authors 'J. D. Robb'
The OPF file /J. D. Robb does not exist
what does "The OPF file /J. D. Robb does not exist" mean?
I already have many books by this author spelled `J. D. Robb` and only this one book is under another folder because the space is missing...

What is the proper command to change the authers name with calibredb?

Thank you
