You can resolve setState undefined issue in two ways

1. Change your functions to arrow functions

   componentDidMount() {
       this.database.once("value", snapshot => {
          snapshot.forEach(data => {
             this.setState({users: data.val()})
          })
       });
    }
   

2. Bind each function like below

     componentDidMount() {
        this.database.once("value", function(snapshot) {
            snapshot.forEach(function(data) {
                this.setState({users: data.val()})
            }.bind(this)}
        }.bind(this));
      }
