check this artical

otherwise you can add a flash message on view file…




 if ($_POST['Users']['email'] != '') {

                $Obj = $model->findByAttributes(array('email' => $_POST['Users']['email']));

                if (isset($Obj->attributes)) {

                    $model->attributes = $_POST['Users'];

                    Yii::app()->user->setFlash('error', Yii::t("messages", "There is already an account with this email address, please try again.!"));

                    $this->render('create', array('model' => $model,));

                    Yii::app()->end();

                }

            }

simply write in your model rules like this







array('email', 'unique', 'message' => Yii::t("validation","This email already exists."))
