Running monerod.exe I get the following error:

2017-12-20 06:08:47.886 [P2P6] ERROR txpool src/cryptonote_core/tx_pool.cpp:516 Failed to update txpool transaction metadata: Error finding txpool tx meta: MDB_NOTFOUND: No matching key/data pair found

Can you please explain what the issue is and how I can resolve it?

Thank you

This is, most likely, a corrupted blockchain, for which I've posted suggestions here:

Daemon shuts down on startup ("MDB_BAD_TXN: Transaction must abort, has a child, or is invalid" error)

Given that the error is somewhat different, I'll post those suggestions here too.

Failed to update txpool transaction metadata: Error finding txpool tx meta: MDB_NOTFOUND: No matching key/data pair found

This indicates that your blockchain is corrupted. You can first try to fix this as follows:

Windows

  1. Browse to the directory monerod.exe is located.

  2. Open a new command prompt. This is done by first making sure your cursor isn't located on any of the files and subsequently doing SHIFT + right click. It will give you an option to "Open command window here". If you're using Windows 10, it'll likely give you an option to open the Powershell.

  3. Now type monerod.exe --db-salvage

  4. If you're using the Powershell, type .\monerod.exe --db-salvage

  5. If that doesn't work, type ./monerod.exe --db-salvage

  6. If that doesn't work you, unfortunately, have to resync from scratch. This is done by deleting data.mdb from C:\ProgramData\bitmonero\lmdb, which will trigger the resync.

  7. Note that C:\ProgramData\bitmonero\lmdb is a hidden directory. Thus, you have to manually use the explorer to navigate to it.

Linux and Mac OS X:

  1. Browse to the directory monerod is located.

  2. Open a new terminal.

  3. Now type ./monerod --db-salvage

  4. If that doesn't work you, unfortunately, have to resync from scratch. This is done by deleting data.mdb from ~/.bitmonero, which will trigger the resync.

  5. Note that ~/.bitmonero is, by default, a hidden directory. On Mac OS X you can typically use cmd+shift+. to unhide directories, whereas on Linux you can typically use ctrl+H to unhide directories.

Lastly, as a general piece of advice, if you need to shut down your PC, first shut down monerod gracefully by typing exit (if you're using the CLI) or click on the x (right top) if you're using the GUI. Otherwise, you might corrupt the blockchain again and you'd have to start all over again.

Depending on what part of the code is calling this (your log does not give enough info to tell), it's either a corrupted blockchain, or a harmless message which is fixed by https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/2971
