By Useing the DBMS_OUTPUT package. The DBMS_OUTPUT package can be used to show intermediate results from loops and the status of variables as the procedure is executed, however output only occurs after processing is finished, which might not be useful if processing takes a long time. The package UTL_FILE can be used to write to a file, but one must have write access to the output directory. A third possibility is to create a log table and have the procedure write to the table. This will give you debugging information in real time.
