Try this:

  <% @cost.errors.full_messages.each do |m| %>
      <%= m %> 
  <%  end if @cost.errors.present? %>

You should test @cost.errors.present? instead of counting them and compare it to zero ([].present? #=> false)

@MrYoshiji yup, you can do that :)

Im use this but the name of model continuous appear how im my question please what is wrong please

@overallduka It will not show name of the model bcz @cost.errors.full_messages will return an array. You can check it on Rails console
