Resolution
The Diagrams Web Application can have a problem using auto-diagram to open a device diagram if the device name contains unusual but permitted characters.

As an example, consider a device with the name 'testau)to-r+ep=or(ter!na#m$e&'.

These types of unusual characters cause problems in a web environment because they become part of the URL and are not interpreted correctly in a web browser. The workaround is not to use these types of characters in device names.
