validates_associated

Is the any way to get more descriptive of the errors associated with the associated model?

I have a site model that has:

validates_associated :Eqptattrs

and below is the error generated from the associated model.

There were problems with the following fields:

    * Eqptattrs is invalid

class Eqptattr < ActiveRecord::Base   belongs_to :site   belongs_to :equipment

    validates_presence_of :ip end

class Site < ActiveRecord::Base   has_many :eqptattrs, :dependent => :destroy   has_many :equipments, :through => :eqptattrs

    validates_uniqueness_of :name     validates_associated :eqptattrs end

class Equipment < ActiveRecord::Base   has_many :eqptattrs, :dependent => :destroy   has_many :sites, :through => :eqptattrs end

I also use this kind of validations in another project and I get the same general error. Is there a better way to handle these kind of association errors?
