Since it matches any socket I can only assume that yes it was fill in as any color to allow your meta to be useful. But I also wouldnt be surprised if it didnt work either, I honestly never had to test it so its a pretty good question hopefully someone can confirm.

Yes, nightmare tears count towards 1 of every color, so you only need one nightmare tear and nothing else to activate your meta.
Um, your meta
isn't
activated? You have all the gems necessary and it looks activated on wowarmory. I'm not 100% sure it would say if it was deactivated, though it does tell me when you're not getting socket bonuses, so my guess is that it would.

hmmm
someone happened to mention to me once he didnt think it was activated,but i thought i heard all i needed to activate it was a nightmare tear,which i have in my boots
Inspecting someone in-game always makes it look like their meta is inactive. It's a bug. If it looks active to you, it's active.
If someone mentioned to you that your gem was inactive then he's just dumb because NO ONE's metas appear to be active in-game except your own.

I'm pretty sure that when inspecting someone else, whatever the requirements of the meta gem are, if the person doing the inspecting does not meet those requirements, it will show as inactive.
If the requirement is one of every color, and you have have the Nightmare Tear, it would be active. But if I were inspecting you and only had blue gems, it would be inactive.

Either way, it's a bug.
If it says it's active on your character sheet, don't worry about what other people tell you.

A Nightmare Tear counts as 1 Red, 1 Blue, and 1 Yellow gem. One Nightmare Tear and no other gems would be enough to activate a
Relentless Earthsiege Diamond
. If the text for the gem effect shows up as white when you mouseover your helm in the character pane, it's active. If it's grey, it's inactive. My dumb friend ran through all of Ulduar with an inactive meta cuz he forgot to get a new Nightmare Tear when he upgraded a piece. He had three months of no meta, guild got a good kick out of that when he noticed it.
