Standard validation rule error message on VF page

Hi All
I created one VR on a custom object called "projects__c" where user is not allowed to enter more than 100% in 5 different percent fields. This works fine on the standard page but when i created a VF page to override the button the error message doesn't pop in the VF page.

I tried using try and catch statements in controller and apex:messages in VF page but no luck. Please find below my code and help me in this :

Controller: (Not entire controller)
public class ProjectsCustomPageCtrl{
  public Projects__c proj {get;set;}

  public ProjectsCustomPageCtrl(ApexPages.StandardController myController){            
            proj = new Projects__c();
      }
      
  public PageReference SaveRec(){  
        if(proj.Name!=null && proj.Name!=''){                         
            insert proj;                  
        }                 
      return new PageReference('/' +proj.id).setRedirect(true);       
    }   
}

VF Page:
<apex:page standardController="Projects__c" extensions="ProjectsCustomPageCtrl" sidebar="false" tabStyle="Projects__c">
<apex:messages/>

Put your insert into try catch block and throw exception. ALso change <apex:message> with <apex:pagemessages/>

Hi Ronu,

Please refer my following code .
  
public class ProjectsCustomPageCtrl{
public Projects__c proj {get;set;}

public ProjectsCustomPageCtrl(ApexPages.StandardController myController){            
            proj = new Projects__c();
      }

public pagereference SaveRec(){

Try{
if(proj.Name!=null && proj.Name!=''){                         
            insert proj;                  
}
}catch(Exception ex){
ApexPages.addmessage(new ApexPages.message(ApexPages.severity.FATAL,'Please enter The Project Name'));
}
return null;

}

}

@kaplesh : I have already tried this but no luck.

@Soundar : I tried the same thing you have written but facing one error i.e When I enter more than 100 in 5 different fields it given me error on the top but when i enter les than 100 value and hit save the page remains on the same edit mode but in the backend it does create record.

Below is the Save() method :
 
public PageReference SaveRec(){  
  
        Try{
        if(proj.Name!=null && proj.Name!=''){                                     
            insert proj;                  
        }              
    }     
     catch(Exception ex){
            ApexPages.addmessage(new ApexPages.message(ApexPages.severity.FATAL,'Please enter The Project Name'));
            }
      //return null;                   
      return new PageReference('/' +proj.id).setRedirect(true);         
    }    
   
    public PageReference doCancel(){        
       return new PageReference('/a01/o').setRedirect(true);
   }    

This is what i am using because i want my page to return to projects ID & should not return null thaty's why commented it. And with this code i get following error :

Update failed. First exception on row 0 with id a012600000FWE90AAH; first error: FIELD_CUSTOM_VALIDATION_EXCEPTION, Work spread cannot be &gt; 100%: []
Error is in expression '{!SaveRec}' in component <apex:commandButton> in page projectscustomeditpage: Class.ProjectsCustomEditPageCtrl.SaveRec: line 25, column 1

Let me know if you can help here..!!
