Hi,
I am new to java and cannot fiugre out what is wrong with my code. I keep getting the following error:
Upgrade.java:13 3: unreported exception java.lang.Excep tion; must be caught or declared to be thrown
new SpFwUpgrade(sp, UrlPath);
SpFwUpgrade is called in Upgrade.java as follows:

 try
         {
                  new SpFwUpgrade(sp, UrlPath);
                   //new FTPGet(sp,fw,fw,fw);
         }
                catch (STAFException e)
         {
                  return new STAFResult(e.rc, e.getMessage());
         }

SpFwUpgrade.jav a is written as follows:

public class  SpFwUpgrade{
             public SpFwUpgrade(String sp, String urlPath) throws Exception
     {
       try
        {

          GetFw(urlPath);
          SpFwUpgrade1(sp);

         }
        catch(IOException e){System.err.println(e.getMessage());}
     }

Any hints would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks
Anna
