Bean validation custom messages dont work

[Jose Luis Mesa Munoz]

First of all escuse me for my english. I have a problem with bean validation messages. I have ValidationMessages.properties, MessageResources.properties and in my .xhtml or in my ManagedBeans files i can access the keys... all is correct but when i put the

javax.faces.validator.BeanValidator.MESSAGE={1}: {0}

in my MessageResources bean Validations dont work well. This is my configuration:

faces-config.xml

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>

<!-- =========== FULL CONFIGURATION FILE ================================== -->

<faces-config version="2.1"
    xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-facesconfig_2_1.xsd">

    
    <application>
        <resource-bundle>
            <base-name>MessageResources</base-name>
            <var>msg</var>
            <default-locale>es</default-locale>
        </resource-bundle>
    </application>    

</faces-config>

The MessageResources

modPrin_cliente_apellido2Contacto=Segundo Apellido
modPrin_cliente_cargoContacto=Cargo
modPrin_cliente_emailContacto=Email
modPrin_cliente_principalContacto=¿Principal?
modPrin_cliente_riesgoComercial=Riesgo Comercial

javax.faces.validator.BeanValidator.MESSAGE={1}: {0}

The .xhtml file

                <p:outputLabel id="outNombreFiscal" for="txtNombreFiscal" value="#{msg.modPrin_cliente_nombre}:"/> 
                <p:inputText value="#{clienteBean.txtNombreFiscal}" label="Nombre Fiscal" id="txtNombreFiscal" size="150" tabindex="1" style="color: black" >                                      
                    <p:focus/>
                </p:inputText>

the property in my managedBean

    @NotNull(message="{error.campoobligatorio}") 
    private String txtNombreFiscal; 

the ValidationMessages.properties

error.campoobligatorio=El campo es obligatorio

Bean validation display my messages but not i this format javax.faces.validator.BeanValidator.MESSAGE={1}: {0}
where {1} is the label and {0} is the message. It only display the message with the key error.campoobligatorio=El campo es obligatorio

SOMEONE KNOWS WHY???

Welcome to the JavaRanch, Sr. Munoz! (¿Muñoz?)

I think your problem is:

@NotNull(message="{error.campoobligatorio}")   

Where it should be

@NotNull(message="#{error.campoobligatorio}")   

The "#" triggers the EL processor.
