ASP.NET Application and ASPNETDB.MDF

Question

I've built an ASP.NET application and noticed that my /App_Data folder contains two files: ASPNETDB.MDF and aspnet_log.mdf. They total about 10MB in size.

I'm handling security via an Oracle database and authentication mode = "Forms".

Why did these files get created? Is it safe to delete them?

I'm guessing before you configured the providers you clicked on the manage asp.net application button which may have created these for you.

If that is the case are they safe to delete?

Yes it is safe to delete it. I did, and nothing bad happened. All settings for your app is stored in web.config.
