Welcome to the forum!
Whenever you post provide your 4 digit Oracle version (result of SELECT * FROM V$VERSION).
Confirm that the procedure works properly when called from sql*plus.
For example here is some code that tests a package procedure I have in the SCOTT schema
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON SIZE 1000000
DECLARE
  l_cursor  test_refcursor_pkg.my_ref_cursor;
  l_ename   emp.ename%TYPE;
  l_empno   emp.empno%TYPE;
BEGIN
  test_refcursor_pkg.test_proc (l_cursor);
  LOOP
    FETCH l_cursor
    INTO  l_empno, l_ename;
    EXIT WHEN l_cursor%NOTFOUND;
    DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(l_ename || ' | ' || l_empno);
  END LOOP;
  CLOSE l_cursor;
END;
