PL/SQL will compile with warnings but will not run

Question

I have a pl/sql package that will compile with warnings but no errors but when i try to run it I get an ORA-6508 error telling me there is an error somewhere in the package but I can't find it.
I have two user schemas that use 2 slightly different versions of the package. I had to make slight code changes to one of the versions and when I made those changes it stopped running. The second version compiles and runs correctly.
After going through a line by line comparison the first copy was still not running. I copied the second version of the code into the broken schema and commented out the additional lines of code that are not needed in this version.
When I tried to compile and run this version it still fails with the same error.
I am using Oracle XE and the databases are small.
I can send on the code if necessary.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks
Susan

I tried doing what you suggested but there are no errors as it is compiling correctly.
It is only when I run the package through the debugger that I get the error. I have posted it below
