Warning: truncating incorrect value for DATE tag 1987 09 in file FLAC/Black/Wonderful Life/02 - Everything's Coming Up Roses.flac

Upon checking the tags they are as reported by the warning message as so inline with Simon's earlier explaination.

What I'm not clear on is, is this a problem as such & what are the implications of doing nothing with these reported tracks - other than them appearing in the log when ever MinimServer is restarted? I can see the tracks on my control point and they play on my renderer. There are 17 albums currently effected. So do I need to take some action or just wait until the workaround for date format YYYY MM is added to the next version?

Thanks in advance.

The message is telling you that "1987 09" has ben truncated to "1987". As many control points do a similar truncation themselves, you might not notice any dfference in how these albums are displayed.

The change to support these date values without a warning message about truncation won't be in the upcoming new release of MinimServer, but should be available in an update soon after that.
