Merge multiple lines into a single line

Hi all, I'm relatively new to scripting, I can do pretty basic things. I have a daily log file that looks like:

Code:
timestamp=2017-06-28-01.01.35.080576;
     event status=0;
     userid=user1;
   authid=user1;
     application id=10.10.10.10.11111.12345678901;
     application name=GUI;

  
timestamp=2017-06-28-01.01.36.096486;
     event status=0;
     userid=user1;
     authid=user1;
     application id=10.10.10.10.11111.12345678901;
     application name=GUI;
     statement text=SELECT table.field, table.field, table.field from database where table.field = value

There is a blank line between each log entry. I need to combine each log entry into one line and preferably remove the final semi-colon if there is one. I'm guessing that awk or sed could help. I've asked elsewhere, still no luck. Hopefully someone can help me out here.

SYNOPSIS
Warning This extension is deprecated as of PHP 5.5.0, and will be removed in the future. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information. Alternatives to this function include: omysqli_fetch_field_direct(3) [table] or [orgtable] o PDOStatement::getColumnMeta [table] string mysql_field_table (resource $result, int $field_offset) DESCRIPTION
Returns the name of the table that the specified field is in. o $ result -The result resource that is being evaluated. This result comes from a call to mysql_query(3). o $ field_offset -The numerical field offset. The $field_offset starts at 0. If $field_offset does not exist, an error of level E_WARNING is also issued. The name of the table on success. Example #1 A mysql_field_table(3) example <?php $query = "SELECT account.*, country.* FROM account, country WHERE country.name = 'Portugal' AND account.country_id = country.id"; // get the result from the DB $result = mysql_query($query); // Lists the table name and then the field name for ($i = 0; $i < mysql_num_fields($result); ++$i) { $table = mysql_field_table($result, $i); $field = mysql_field_name($result, $i); echo "$table: $field "; } ?> Note For backward compatibility, the following deprecated alias may be used: mysql_fieldtable(3) mysql_list_tables(3).
