I am using MVC 4 with Code First and just starting to use the Fluent API, but I can’t find anywhere where it is mentioned how to provide validation error messages? Can this only be done by using Data Annotations?

On possibility is to use Data Annotations. Another possibility is to use a differehnt validation framework such as FluentValidation.NET which allows you to specify the error message in your validator rules.
