I have many torrents downloading at once in the BitTorrent client and keep getting an error:

Error: Element not found.

Does anyone know how I can fix this error?

TBH I don't think that very many people will help you with this, as torrents are directly related to pirated software, and this question needs more detail – KronoS Aug 25 '11 at 1:54

eh, a good amount of my torrents are legit. Besides, all the cool hipstery pirates are using newsnet these days. – Journeyman Geek Aug 25 '11 at 6:11

Try setting diskio.coalesce_writes to "false" and turn off bt.compact_allocation.

ok done. the errors are still there. i will check back in an hour or so to see if the problem still exists. – Pacerier Aug 25 '11 at 10:30
i've switched the settings and restarted bittorrent but it doesn't seem to work. – Pacerier Aug 25 '11 at 11:44

I got this error, and changing the Advanced variables did not work for my situation.

What did work was freeing up disk space. There was not enough free space to finish downloading the torrent; and when the client tried to create one of the huge files, it gave this error! (instead of a "no disk space" error).
