   Sorry for my confusing comment. Here are some more details. 
   
   The parquet files of the dataset are exports from an oracle database written 
with another software(knime). Unfortunately, this leads to the parquet files 
having different column ordering, although the data types of the columns are 
identical. 
   
   This means, I am able to read the dataset (parquet files) using 
pyarrow.dataset or pyarrow.read_table. 
   However, when trying to create  metadata and common metadata files according 
to 
https://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/parquet.html#writing-metadata-and-common-medata-files,
 I get the same this error
   
   RuntimeError: AppendRowGroups requires equal schemas. 
   
   
   I do understand, that data types have to be identical, but I wonder why the 
column ordering is important here. 
   
   I am currently on my mobile. I'll provide some sample code later.
