Does the answer here help at all? It doesn't look like they have it for download officially anywhere. groups.google.com/group/javaposse/browse_thread/thread/… - Michael Berry
Thanks, I'm not sure how I could use the metalink.oracle.com site, since it seems to require the incident number as first thing - Paolo
I'm not sure either, I'd personally take the support request route to Oracle to ask! - Michael Berry
Why do you want to download an old version for Java 5 only? - kittylyst
I need Java 5 because the project I'm working on doesn't work with java 6. Is it possible to use last version in "java 5 mode"? - Paolo

Not sure if this is still relevant. I was on a similar hunt and first stumbled on this question, then later figured out the following with the help of oracle support:

  1. Go to Oracle Software Delivery Cloud - you will have to register/sign in.
  2. For Product Pack select "Oracle BEA"
  3. Select the platform of your choice.
  4. Click on “BEA WebLogic Media Pack for..."
  5. You will see three JRockit links for different java versions. Pick the one you need-

It might help. It helped me. JRockit are downloaded from the below specified site. Clicking on the download link you will get the latest version something like this. From this you can specify the version on the copied link address and hit in the browsers.

http://download.oracle.com/otn/bea/jrockit/jrockit-jdk1.6.0_37-R28.2.5-4.1.0-windows-ia32.exe

http://download.oracle.com/otn/bea/jrockit/jrockit---.

Note : To use this you have to know the version exactly .
