Try this:

Code:
awk 'NR==FNR{ 
  gsub(/^[ \t]+/, "")
  gsub(/[ \t]+$/, "")
  gsub(/[ ]+/," ")
  a[$3]=$0
  next
}
{  
  gsub(/^[ \t]+/, "")
  gsub(/[ \t]+$/, "")
  gsub(/[ ]+/," ")
}
a[$3] && a[$3]!=$0 {
  print $0 RS
}
' RS=";" DEV.log PROD.log

That's against rule 10 of the forum rules:

Oh! I am sorry, did not know that. I joined this forum today only, and I am very glad to join this forum. Today itself I could clear most of my doubts. Thanks to all who replied to my queries, also to those who are participating in this forum, though actively or passively. :-)
