Question

applicationContext-Service.xml

<bean id="messageSource" class="org.springframework.context.support.ReloadableResourceBundleMessageSource">
    <property name="basenames">
        <list><value>messages</value></list>
    </property>
</bean>

I have messages_en_US.properties under /src/messages_en_US.properties

registerForm.passwordNotMatch=Password does not match.

This is line of code is bringing up the error:

binding.addError(new FieldError(REGISTER_FORM, "passwordNotMatch", messageSource.getMessage("registerForm.passwordNotMatch", null, locale)));

Error: No message found under code ‘registerForm.passwordNotMatch’ for locale ‘en_US’.

What might be wrong?

Answer 1

does it work if you change to:

classpath:messages

?

I had the experience that if using ReloadableResourceBundleMessageSource, in jsp will not find the properties file. adding classpath: before the basename solved my problem.

Well even though was my project managed by maven, I think you can give it a try anyway.
