Garrett,I have config.filter_parameters = [:password, :document_file] in application.rb. :document_file is the name of the big column. I "puts" the array.inspect and confirmed that both password and document_file are there. The contents of the big column are still showing up in the log.
BTW, I was advised to store these data in the file system instead of the db, Unfortunately, the file system will be read-only once I deploy and I want to test in the environment that I will be using, so I set the rails tree to read only during some of my development and test operations (which is how I discovered that I needed to use the database for all dynamic data in the first place).

I have been looking for a way to eliminate the contents of certain large (e.g. pdf files) database columns from my development (and production) logs using RoR 3 with no luck. I found many posts, etc. about eliminating parameters (e.g. password) from the log, but nothing about the contents of the db. I have two reasons for this, 1) the verbosity and size of the log slow down my development/debugging, and 2) writing these columns definitely slows the operation of the site itself. Can anyone help?
