I can't remember to have used parted, but FWIW: have you looked under
"Known Issues" in man parted?

"KNOWN ISSUES
       ext3 filesystem resizing does not currently work, please use
       resize2fs(8) instead.

Resizing  partitions  with  an  ext3 filesystem will not generally work
because of the above issue.  Use resize2fs(8) to resize the filesystem
and resize the partition manually using fdisk(8) or a similar tool.  For
LVM situations, you will need to use the LVM commands to resize the LVM
elements."
