Can someone please explain why I am getting this compilation error?

C:\Users\Benni\Documents>cd comp132/assignment2

C:\Users\Benni\Documents\Comp132\assignment2>javac VehicleTest.java
VehicleTest.java:32: insertionSort(int[]) in VehicleObjectInsertionSorter cannot

C:\Users\Benni\Documents\Comp132\assignment2>

this is my insertion sort java code

 /**
   The IntInsertionSorter class provides a public static
   method for performing an insertion sort on an int array.
*/

public class VehicleObjectInsertionSorter
{

   /**
      The insertionSort method performs an insertion sort on
      an int array. The array is sorted in ascending order.
      @param array The array to sort.
   */

   public static void insertionSort(int[] array)
   {
      int unsortedValue;  // The first unsorted value
      int scan;           // Used to scan the array
      
      // The outer loop steps the index variable through 
      // each subscript in the array, starting at 1. This
      // is because element 0 is considered already sorted.
      for (int index = 1; index < array.length; index++)
      {
         // The first element outside the sorted subset is
         // array[index]. Store the value of this element
         // in unsortedValue.
         unsortedValue = array[index];
         
         // Start scan at the subscript of the first element
         // outside the sorted subset.
         scan = index;
         
         // Move the first element outside the sorted subset
         // into its proper position within the sorted subset.
         while (scan > 0 && array[scan-1] > unsortedValue)
         {
            array[scan] = array[scan - 1];
            scan--;
         }
         
         // Insert the unsorted value in its proper position
         // within the sorted subset.
         array[scan] = unsortedValue;
      }
   }
}

My main program:

public class VehicleTest
{
  public static int MAX = 4;
  public static void main(String[] args)
  {

    //make instances of different vehicles (these are the vehicle objects)
    Vehicle carVehicle = new Vehicle("car", "Ford", "red");
	carVehicle.displayMessage();
	Vehicle truckVehicle = new Vehicle("truck", "Nissan", "green");
	truckVehicle.displayMessage();
    Vehicle busVehicle = new Vehicle("bus", "Mercedes", "white");
	busVehicle.displayMessage();
    Vehicle motorBikeVehicle = new Vehicle("motorbike", "Honda", "silver");	
	motorBikeVehicle.displayMessage();
	
	
    System.out.println("");
    //create an array of these Vehicles
    Vehicle[] ve = new Vehicle[MAX];
    ve[0] = carVehicle;
    ve[1] = truckVehicle;
    ve[2] = busVehicle;
    ve[3] = motorBikeVehicle;

    System.out.println("\nOutput of array before being sorted");

    for(int i = 0; i < MAX; i++)
      System.out.println(ve[i]);

    // Sort the array by vehicle make.
    VehicleObjectInsertionSorter.insertionSort(ve,"make");

    System.out.println("\nOutput of array after being sorted by vehicle make");
    for(int i = 0; i < MAX; i++)
      System.out.println(ve[i]);

    // Sort the array by vehicle type.
    //VehicleObjectInsertionSorter.insertionSort(ve,"type");

    System.out.println("\nOutput of array after being sorted by vehicle type");
    for(int i = 0; i < MAX; i++)
      System.out.println(ve[i]);

    // Sort the array by vehicle colour.
	//VehicleObjectInsertionSorter.insertionSort(ve,"colour");

    System.out.println("\nOutput of array after being sorted by vehicle colour");
    for(int i = 0; i < MAX; i++)
      System.out.println(ve[i]);

  }
}

and my Vehicle class:

public class Vehicle  
{
	private String type;
	private String make;
	private String colour;

	//Constructor
	public Vehicle(String t, String m, String c)
	{		
		type = t;
		make = m;
		colour = c;
	}
	
	public void displayMessage(){
		System.out.printf("The type of vehicle is a %s ", type);
		System.out.printf(" and the make is %s ", make);
		System.out.printf(" and the colour is %s\n", colour);
	}


}

Your insertionSort class or method expects only an integer array (insertionSort(int[] array)) and not a vehicle array + String!
the error message says that also clearly:
insertionSort(int[]) in VehicleObjectInsertionSorter cannot be applied to (Vehicle[],java.lang.String
