You have to include code in the view to conditionally show the error messages when they are present. Alternatively, you can use this approach to creating custom form markup: http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/07/forms-and-validators#Custom-forms. Using the form.custom.widget.fieldname widgets will include the default error messages automatically when they are present.
