Error messages will be displayed where you have written the following command. This tag will show all messages for the components

<h:messages style="color:darkred"/>

I was not able to understand from where the text of the error message coming. I checked facess config as well as mesages files. None of them has the text. Does the it is showing default text message. If that is the case where can i find all those default text messages. Please advise

The range validation error message template is contained within the validator's own source code, although you can provide overrides.

In the case of that particular error, the validator does a message Format operation to create a message from the template with the range constraints plugged in, then throws a ValidationException where the Exception message text is the message that was just created. The JSF framework catches it and adds it to the messages container and the JSF message elements select it and format it for display.

where and how can i see all those messages within the validator's own source code

You could download the source code and look through it. Perhaps you could explain why you need to see the source code? There may be an easier solution to whatever you are trying to do.
