You should use file messages.properites to declare specific information:

typeMismatch.java.util.Date = Invalid date

Of course you should provide information about this file in your spring-context.xml

  <bean id="messageSource" class="org.springframework.context.support.ReloadableResourceBundleMessageSource">
     <property name="basename" value="/WEB-INF/config/messages"/>
     <property name="defaultEncoding" value="UTF-8"/>         
    </bean>
