Android maps v2 Api required meta-data - android

I have an issue when I run my app that uses Google Maps API v2:
Error inflating class fragment. Caused by: A required meta-data tag in your app´s AndroidManifest.xml does not exist
My AndroidManifest.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.my.package"

android:value="my Key"/>
<meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version" />
</application>
</manifest>
If it helps, this is my xml and the error is in the line of the fragment:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<fragment
android:id="#+id/map"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
class="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>

Missing this code insert manifest
<uses-feature
android:glEsVersion="0x00020000"
android:required="true"/>

You may insert this:
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version" />
It tells the app what is the Google Play version in use
EDIT: For reference, this is a working manifest from one of my apps:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Perhaps the OpenGL one?

Manifest error The markup in the document following the root element must be well-formed

I am a newbie in Android development.
After build I get error in my manifest file: The markup in the document following the root element must be well-formed.
Here's the AndroidManifest.xml code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="smart.tuke.sk.makac" >

</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
I cannot see there any error. Thanks in advance for your help.
You have to close tag </manifest>, since Google Play Services 3.1.59 permission is now completely unnecessary, use this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="smart.tuke.sk.makac" >
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher"

google maps V2 IllegalStateException

I have this very weird bug that my app crashes in the minute I launch it.
the call stack is:
01-25 15:10:52.264: E/AndroidRuntime(13707): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.out.goout/com.out.goout.Splash}: java.lang.IllegalStateException:The meta-data tag in your app's AndroidManifest.xml does not have the right value. Expected 4030500 but found 4132500. You must have the following declaration within the <application> element: <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version" android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version" />
the thing is that I do have the tag that explained in the stack trace and the version of my google play services is 14

The step im following are this http://mobile.tutsplus.com/tutorials/android/android-sdk-working-with-google-maps-application-setup/ testing it with a samsung galaxy SIII phonel.
The application simply starts but close inmediatly (5 seconds after) telling the app must be closed.
Attached you can find the logcat with the errors and here is the manifest

I added the google-services-lin in the workspace as in the tutorial
Thanks before hand
Your meta-data elements should be within the application element. See previous reply. By the way, don't show your API Key.
I am adding one of my manifests from a working program (less the API key of course)

You are missing a few things from the "Specify settings in the Application Manifest" section
1) The permissions
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>
2) You app permission
<permission
android:name="com.example.mapdemo.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"
android:protectionLevel="signature"/>
<uses-permission android:name="com.example.mapdemo.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"/>
3) the opengl requirement
<uses-feature
android:glEsVersion="0x00020000"
android:required="true" />
