laravel 5 validation custom error message not appear

Question

I want to show the custom validation error message if user upload an image size of more than 4 MB. However, once submitted with an image of like above 4MB, it shows the default error message : "The file name failed to upload.". Below is my code in the controller:

$messages = [
            'fileName' => 'Image maximum size exceed. ',
];

$validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
            'fileName' => 'max:4096', 
        ], $messages);

if ($validator->fails()) {
            return redirect()->back()->withErrors($validator->errors());
        }

Here is the HTML code in the blade file:

<input type="file" name="fileName">

@rkj done as 'fileName.max' => 'Image maximum size exceed. ', ---- but the same message showing. — Niladri Banerjee - Uttarpara

Maybe this? resources/lang/en/validation.php 'custom' => [ 'attribute-name' => [ 'fileName' => 'custom-message', ], ], — Bas

I know this is an old question but I have to post this answer here. This was what worked for me

$messages = [
            'fileName.uploaded' => 'Image maximum size exceed. ',
];

I used this line:

return redirect()->back()->withErrors($validator->customMessages);

and it solved the problem.

This doesn't work if I need to validate for multiple rules, it only returns the customMessage
