<fragment 
      android:id="@+id/map"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="match_parent"
      class="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"/>

</RelativeLayout>

Answer 2

Try this SupportMapFragment instead of MapFragment in last line also look your fragment tag.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<RelativeLayout 
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context=".MainActivity" >


 <fragment 
      android:id="@+id/map"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="match_parent"
      android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"/>

</RelativeLayout>

Refer this Example

Answer 3

remove it from fragment class in your xml :

xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

Not sure if I'm helpful here but i only declare the Namespace once in my case in the

<RelativeLayout 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" >

  <fragment class="com.blablabla.MyFragment"
        android:id="@+id/fragment"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
 </RelativeLayout>
