Currently if you have an xml character in your layer name in a MXD published as a service WMS will not work. Please fix this.
WMS and WCS capable map services cannot be published if any layer names contain URL and/or XML reserved characters. These characters include the following:
&<>"'?=$~^`#%*()
Characters that can be used within a layer name include the following:
/:;\{}[]|+
