Error: The file name must end with .xml or .png

Question

Even though I didn't choose photothumb.db as a drawable, I get an error saying photothumb.db should end with .xml or .png

my profilesmaller image is of type png

Below are my codes

<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="@drawable/profilesmaller"
    tools:context="charlenebuena.guest.HomeFragment">
</FrameLayout>

Below is my Gradle Console Message

Android accepts only .png, .jpg, .gif and .xml files as drawable resources. If you have file .db file then put that file in assets folder.
