this weekend end something happened and I cannt use the managed metadata service.

The error I have is:

The Managed Metadata Service or Connection is currently not available. The Application Pool or Managed Metadata Web Service may not have been started. Please Contact your Administrator.

The first error that I see in the ULS log related to my problem are:

    Failed to get term store for proxy 'MMS for Content Hub'. Exception: System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary.    
     at Microsoft.SharePoint.Taxonomy.Internal.XmlDataReader.GetDateTime(String name)    
     at Microsoft.SharePoint.Taxonomy.Internal.SharedTermStore.Initialize(IDataReader dataReader, Guid termStoreIdValue, Boolean fromPersistedData)    
     at Microsoft.SharePoint.Taxonomy.Internal.SharedTermStore..ctor(IDataReader dataReader, Guid termStoreId, Boolean fromPersistedData)    
     at Microsoft.SharePoint.Taxonomy.Internal.DataAccessManager.GetTermStoreData(MetadataWebServiceApplicationProxy sharedServiceProxy, Boolean& partitionCreated)
The Managed Metadata Service 'MMS for Content Hub' is inaccessible.

The service is startedbut I have :

The Managed Metadata Service or Connection is currently not available. The Application Pool or Managed Metadata Web Service may not have been started. Please Contact your Administrator. 

I have tried based (on other posts with similar problems):

  • Stopping and restarting a new Metadata Service.
  • an iisreset.
  • Checked permissions on the users who runs the application pool and they are fine

The sites that use term store give me the following error

Constructing CachedExceptionData with OriginalUtcTime=09/26/2016 08:52:56, OriginalCorrelationId=f47da79d-eca6-404e-1e1a-c62cb218a54e: System.InvalidOperationException: TermStore not found

 at Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.Navigation.LoadableLruCachedObject.LoadIfNotAlreadyLoaded(Action loadMethodCall)

Is there anything else I could try?

EDIT: If I create a new Managed Metadata Service it gets created and it is shown as started in the Central Admin/Service Applications but when I click on it it doesn't appear in the drop down with the Available Service Applications and again the message "The Managed Metadata Service or Connection is currently not available.

The Application Pool or Managed Metadata Web Service may not have been started. Please Contact your Administrator.

In the end I just renamed the service db and then renamed it back to the original name and it worked.

I got the hint here : The Managed Metadata Service or Connection is currently not available
