There is no fix to this. SH3 sends the "base changed" message at midnight on the date that the base changes.
2nd Flotilla does not move to Lorient until Sep 1940, so you would not receive the message until midnight on 1 Sep 1940. As you docked before September, this is why you did not get the message.
So what has happened? Simple. When you docked, repair time and other aspects were added to the date, taking you into September. Suddenly the game thinks you should be at Lorient, but you're not. You're where you should have been pre-September but not where you should be post-September. SH3 does not handle this scenario well - you'll see this problem raised numerous times over the past years. It's merely timing related.
The only real solution is to avoid docking around changeover dates, or wait until *after* the date has past.
