Spring JSP not showing Error messages

I have a JSp in which I I used Spring:bind and spring:hasBindErrors tags. I am not able to display the error messages on the screen. Moreover I am not knowing where to write the properties as we write in resources.properties file.

I am also pasting the Controller class below

////////////////////////////
////////LogonController.java
////////////////////////////

package com.addrbk.ctrl;

import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;

import org.apache.commons.logging.Log;
import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.SimpleFormController;

import com.addrbk.domain.Login;
import com.addrbk.domain.UserBean;


public class LogonController extends SimpleFormController{
	protected final Log logger = LogFactory.getLog(getClass());
	public Object formBackingObject(HttpServletRequest request) throws ServletException
	{
		Login backingObject = new Login();
		logger.info("<<< formBackingObject >>>");
		
		/* The backing object should be set up here, with data for the initial values
		* of the form’s fields. This could either be hard-coded, or retrieved from a
		* database.
		*/
		return backingObject;
	}

	public ModelAndView onSubmit(Object command) throws ServletException 
	{
		
		Login user = (Login)command;
		logger.info("Login form Submitted");
		logger.info("Username >>> :"+user.getUserid());
		logger.info("Password >>> :"+user.getPasswd());
		//Now you can validate to database
		return new ModelAndView("success");

I have also placed messageSource bean in the addrbk-servlet.xml as below and myMessages.properties file in classes directory. Still no result

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