Create a resource bundle with specific keys
Create a properties file with custom keys and specify its name in web.xml
Specify the custom messages in faces-config.xml
JSF allows customization of validation messages through resource bundles (property files) containing message keys for specific validators. To use custom messages, you create a resource bundle with the required keys (like javax.faces.validator.LengthValidator.MINIMUM, etc.) and register the bundle in faces-config.xml using the configuration. Simply creating the bundle (B) or configuring in web.xml (C) are insufficient steps - registration in faces-config is required.
