No, clearly not. It's supposed to switch to the slot filters and then live happily ever after. Hmmm ...

Apparently we use the same message when migrating to slot filters from bloom filters as we do when rebuilding because of an unclean shutdown. I have fixed this in the source, it will be included in the next build; we will use a different message if the .slotfilter file doesn't exist.

In your datastore/ folder you should have the following .slotfilter files, as well as other stuff:

CHK-cache.slotfilter
CHK-clientcache.slotfilter
CHK-store.slotfilter
PUBKEY-cache.slotfilter
PUBKEY-clientcache.slotfilter
PUBKEY-store.slotfilter
SSK-cache.slotfilter
SSK-clientcache.slotfilter
SSK-store.slotfilter

Do all these files exist? If so then it probably isn't migrating - it's probably rebuilding because of an unclean shutdown. In other words, Freenet has been killed by the wrapper because of taking too long to shut down, or you had a power cut, or pushed the power button or something.

wrapper.log may reveal whether Freenet is regularly having problems shutting down?
