After similar issues with the contacts app (https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/45260, https://github.com/nextcloud/contacts/issues/4603), I assume that this is caused by contacts whose UID contain a slash. Note that URIs are explicitly allowed as UID and therefore also slashes: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6350.html#section-6.7.6
This has preivously been fixed in the contacts app (https://github.com/nextcloud/contacts/pull/4615) by using a base64 encoding of the UID for routing, which is also used by the calendar app.
Steps to reproduce
I have no sandbox to test and cannot experiment with production data, but I expect the following steps to be able to reproduce the issue:
- Install and activate maps app
- Create a contact with a UID that contains a slash
- Open maps app
Expected behavior
No error message and the contact locations should be shown in the map.
