That implies you have not configured org-mode to include the tikz
package.

If you execute this block in a buffer does it work?

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(org-babel-do-load-languages
 'org-babel-load-languages
 '((emacs-lisp . t)
   (python . t)
   (ditaa . t)
   (dot . t)
   (plantuml . t)
   (gnuplot . t)
   (sh . t)
   (org . t)
   (latex . t)))

(setq org-latex-packages-alist
      (quote (("" "color" t)
              ("" "minted" t)
              ("" "parskip" t)
              ("" "tikz" t))))

(setq org-latex-create-formula-image-program 'imagemagick)
#+END_SRC
