Dots in filename fails on Web Direct

in FileMaker WebDirect

I normally ignore periods in file names as habit but I served one up today to FMS18 including the file's version (for testing) as Master 1.18.1.FMP12.  It uploaded fine, opened file, was accessed from desktop fine (10.13.6) using FM18 and the Web Direct file list showed the file (Chrome 80.0.3987.163) but when I opened via Web Direct, message said, "Database not available."  Correcting the file name allowed it to be opened via Web Direct. Another good reason to NEVER use dots in file names.  🤓
