It may help if you can start vim in non-compatible mode, such as with
vi -N
I suggest also turning on search highlighting:
:set hlsearch
If the path you want to replace does not have any dots, I would first search
for the text that needs to be replaced, perhaps
/\/\/\/[^.]\+\/
With search highlighting, you can see what's been matched. When you're happy
with it,
:%s##///new/path/to/file/
(Note the # above is an arbitrary choice, usually one uses / but that's messy
here.)
