This might be something to do with the tag you tried to add to the file when uploaded rather than a tag within the file itself. Try uploading with a different tag description, ie some plain text, and see if that's the problem. Tags are not valid if they contain /, ?, &, % etc, which basically are the same characters you are not allowed in a URL.
