Android Studio / JAVA: How to trace error at android studio using "log"

Currently, I have a problem with my code. An error displayed as follows

Value br of type java.lang.String cannot be converted to JSONObject

I try to find if there a problem at my PHP side, but I also dunno how to trace the problem.

Thus, can I know how to use the log and where I need to put the log in my code?

I hope anyone can help me with this. Thanks

Below is my current code

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    EditText etBadgeid, etPassword;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        etBadgeid = findViewById(R.id.etBadgeid);
        etPassword = findViewById(R.id.etPassword);

        findViewById(R.id.btnLogin).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {
                userLogin();
            }
        });
    }

    private void userLogin() {
        final String badgeid = etBadgeid.getText().toString();
        final String pwd = etPassword.getText().toString();

        class UserLogin extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, String> {

            @Override
            protected void onPreExecute() {
                super.onPreExecute();
            }

            @Override
            protected void onPostExecute(String s) {
                super.onPostExecute(s);

                try {
                    //converting response to json object
                    JSONObject obj = new JSONObject(s);

                    //if no error in response
                    if (!obj.getBoolean("error")) {
                        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), obj.getString("message"), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

                        //getting the user from the response
                        JSONObject userJson = obj.getJSONObject("user");

                        //creating a new user object
                        User user = new User(
                                            userJson.getString("badgeid"),
                                            userJson.getString("email"),
                                            userJson.getString("fullname"),
                                            userJson.getInt("roles_id"),
                                            userJson.getInt("team_id")
                        );

                        //storing the user in shared preferences
                        SharedPrefManager.getInstance(getApplicationContext()).userLogin(user);

                        //starting the profile activity
                        finish();
                        startActivity(new Intent(getApplicationContext(), Home.class));
                    } else {
                        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Invalid username or password", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    }
                } catch (JSONException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
            }

            @Override
            protected String doInBackground(Void... voids) {
                //creating request handler object
                RequestHandler requestHandler = new RequestHandler();

                //creating request parameters
                HashMap<String, String> params = new HashMap<>();
                params.put("badgeid", badgeid);
                params.put("pwd", pwd);

                //returing the response
                return requestHandler.sendPostRequest(URLs.URL_LOGIN, params);
            }
        }

        UserLogin ul = new UserLogin();
        ul.execute();
    }

    @Override
    public void onBackPressed() {

        finish();
        System.exit(0);
    }
}

In android you can log with Log.d(tag,message), and you can view the debug message in the logcat

You should print log before parsing the response string, 

...
@Override
protected void onPostExecute(String s) {
                super.onPostExecute(s);
                Log.d("onPostExecute","response is: "+s); 

                try {
                    //converting response to json object
                    JSONObject obj = new JSONObject(s);
....

Your response is probably a non json formatted plain text.
