      Issue Summary

      Atlassian Authentication App uses the Viewport meta tag to render authentication methods during user login.

      Below are these tags:

          <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
          <meta name="decorator" content="atl.general"/>
          <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width; initial-scale=1">
      

      It uses semicolon as a separator when it should be using a colon.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Install a vanilla instance of Jira Software Data Center.
        • This was validated with JSW DC 9.11.2.
      2. Upgrade the Atlassian Authentication App to the latest version supported.
        • This was validated with App version 4.2.27.
      3. Configure a couple of authentication methods.
      4. Access the login page on a Chrome browser.
         <Jira-Base-URL>/login.jsp
         
        • Make sure to open the browser developer tool on the console tab.

      Expected Results

      The page loads without any error or warning on the console.

      Actual Results

      The page loads, but there's a warning on the console such as below:

      Error parsing a meta element's content: ';' is not a valid key-value pair separator. Please use ',' instead.

      Although the warning is there, there's no known impact on rendering the page.
      Chromium based browsers throw this warning, while Firefox doesn't.

      Workaround

      Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available.
