🚨 Magento 2.4.8 Issue Alert: Default Error Messages Not Showing on Forms 🚨

[ianjanichoubey]

We've encountered a recurring issue in the latest Magento version 2.4.8 where default error messages are not displaying on core frontend forms such as:

• 🧾 Customer Registration

• ✉️ Contact Us

• 📰 Newsletter Subscription

🔍 Issue Description:

When users submit these forms with invalid or incomplete data, the expected validation or error messages (like "This is a required field") do not appear on the frontend, leading to confusion and a poor user experience.

🛠️ Possible Causes:

• JavaScript validation issues not triggering due to missing or broken x-magento-init bindings.

• Theme-level overrides not properly rendering the message block.

• Missing <div class="messages"> or related layout XML issues in custom themes.

Yes, this is a known issue some developers are encountering with Magento 2.4.8. The missing validation or error messages on core frontend forms—like customer registration, contact us, and newsletter subscription—can often be traced back to JavaScript validation not initializing properly due to broken or missing x-magento-init bindings.

A temporary workaround is manually adding the message container and checking that the `form-key` and validation scripts are properly initialized. Still not ideal for production.
