Whats wrong with the Log.e(); ?

Challenge task 3 of 3 Inside the done() method of the callback, add an if statement to check if the ParseException e is null. If it is not null, log the message "ERROR" using the Log.e() method. Don’t forget to use TAG as the first parameter!

complete code:

import android.app.Activity;
import android.util.Log;
import com.parse.ParseUser;
import com.parse.ParseException;
import com.parse.SignUpCallback;

public class SignUpActivity extends Activity {

    public static final String TAG = SignUpActivity.class.getSimpleName();

    protected SignUpCallback mSignUpCallback = new SignUpCallback() {
        @Override
        public void done(ParseException e) {
            if (e != null) {
            Log.e(TAG, "ERROR", e);
            }
        }
    };

    protected void signUp(String username, String password) {
        ParseUser newUser = new ParseUser();
        newUser.setUsername(username);
        newUser.setPassword(password);
        newUser.signUpInBackground(mSignUpCallback);
    }
}

error:

./SignUpActivity.java:15: cannot find symbol
symbol  : method e(java.lang.String,java.lang.String,com.parse.ParseException)
location: class android.util.Log
            Log.e(TAG, "ERROR", e);
               ^
