I'd suspect you will find a region server without LZO enabled. I actually saw this today. It seems to create in the shell but never completes.
I'd do (in hbase shell) status 'detailed' and see if there are any dead servers. Then take a look at the hbase logs. I suspect you'll see a stack trace about can't find LZO in the classpath. Do you have any other tables successfully enabled with LZO? BTW - we fixed this by putting lzo in the hbase/lib directory and restarting. To make things easy we just dropped and recreated the table.
