cakePHP: how set error validation to input field manually in controller

Question

I want set error validation to input field manually in controller example:

  if ($remainTime < 30) {
      ..... set error validation in here (error: lim         


        

Answer 1

Since a lot has passed since this has been answered in order to pass correct message you need to put it like this:

$this->Model->validationErrors['limitTime'] = array("time is less than 30");

Form is expecting array of error messages.
