After switching to DB users, error if file users still exist

[edalzell]

Bug description

I switch users over to the DB, then when you try to access the CP (I think) you get this error: https://github.com/statamic/cms/issues/719#issuecomment-943075400.

Removing the users (and no other changes) makes everything work.

How to reproduce

1. Have a site with file based users
2. Switch over to DB users, but leave the file users there
3. access site/cp

I can confirm a similar thing happening when you try to run php please stache:clear or other stache commands, the error is as follows:

Call to undefined method Statamic\Auth\Eloquent\User::initialPath()

  at vendor/statamic/cms/src/Stache/Stores/UsersStore.php:39

..as with the original report, I am getting this on a site that I switched over from file-based users to database-based users. Deleting the file-based user's yaml files stops the error from appearing.

This line worked for me:

Deleting the file-based user's yaml files stops the error from appearing

I think the issue may be with the docs on this... on this page it says "In config/statamic/stache.php, comment out the users store."

That means the stache config still has a users key as it gets it from core... really what you need to do is set directory in the users key to null, and then these commands work fine.

I also had this problem when switching from file-based users to database.

The line in the documentation "In config/statamic/stache.php, comment out the users store" was confusing because the stores array in my config/statamic/stache.php file is empty.

However, I can confirm that deleting any remaining yaml files for each user does stop the Call to undefined method Statamic\Auth\Eloquent\User::initialPath() error from happening.

Adding this method to User model solves issue for me:

public function isSuper()
{
    return $this->super;
}
