AIUI this means you didn't create the filesystem with "-O resize_inode", so you can't do online resizing. Unfortunately there's no way to change this after the filesystem is created (see bug #351720), so you're stuck booting into single-user mode and unmounting /var, or making a boot disk and running resize2fs from there.
