Hi,

I think you can do the following:

if($this->Model->save($this->data) == true){
  // successful save
  // your success message
}
elsif($this->Model->save($this->data) == false){
    // when things go wrong
    $this->set('errors", $this->validateErrors($this->Model)));
}

validateErrors() displays validation errors messages.
You put this one on your controller function and you can do a
print_r($errors) in the view file to get all the errors messages

Have a nice day.

I hope I have been useful.
