I am getting this error:

This error occurs after call to check-files.

lines of executing (%PREP,%BUILD, %INSTALL) also have the ${prefix} but it
has a prior / example) /${prefix}/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.t50rm1

Not sure where $prefix is coming from

This seems to ring a bell...

RPM Version: 4.8.0

Is your rpm self-built from sources? The bell ringing in my head says there was (and quite probably still is as I dont remember fixing it) a bug in configure/make system of rpm which causes these bogus ${prefix} paths to be present unless you use --localstatedir=/var or such to configure when building it.
