Hadoop Format namenode gives error Shutting down NameNode at java net UnknownHostException

When I'm trying to run

bin/hadoop namenode -format

I get the following java.net.UnknownHostException exception:

$ bin/hadoop namenode -format

After that, hadoop was started

./bin/start-all.sh

but there was another new exception when I tried to copy a local file:

 bin/hadoop fs  -copyFromLocal ~/file.txt  file.txt

DataStreamer Exception: org.apache.hadoop.ipc.RemoteException: java.io.IOException: File /user/lindenb/file.txt could only be replicated to 0 nodes, instead of 1
    at org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSNamesystem.getAdditionalBlock(FSNamesystem.java:1417)

how can I solve this?

UnknownHostException is thrown when hadoop tries to resolve the DNS name to an ip address. add 127.0.0.1 localhost hostname into the /etc/hosts file. This should solve the error
