HBase Shell - org.apache.hadoop.hbase.ipc.ServerNotRunningYetException: Server is not running yet

I am trying to set up distributed HBase on 3 nodes. I have already set up hadoop, YARN ZooKeeper and now HBase but when I launch hbase shell and run the simplest command for example status or list I get the exception:

My Hadoop Master JPS:

3443 NameNode
13987 Jps
2503 QuorumPeerMain
3754 SecondaryNameNode
4010 ResourceManager
4749 HMaster

and both Nodes JPS:

2135 QuorumPeerMain
6327 HRegionServer
3115 NodeManager
2894 DataNode
6670 Jps

I launch my own ZooKeeper with following zoo.cfg:

tickTime=2000
dataDir=/usr/local/zookeeper/data
dataLogDir=/usr/local/zookeeper/data
clientPort=2181
initLimit=10
syncLimit=10

Also I tried turning safemode:

hadoopuser@OpenCitation1:~$ hdfs dfsadmin -safemode get
Safe mode is OFF

but it didn't work either.

I need help because I am really running out od ideas...

Thanks in advance

UPDATE:

I have solved the issue by adding the following property to the hbase-site.xml:

<property>
  <name>hbase.wal.provider</name>
  <value>filesystem</value>
</property>

Now it runs:

hadoopuser@OpenCitation1:~$ hbase shell

Maybe it will help someone
