Can you do the ls command of your development machine on which you're trying to install JDK 1.5?
The folder is under /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 5 10 Dec 2009 1.3 -> 1.3.1 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 102 21 Jul 2009 1.3.1 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 10 10 Dec 2009 1.4 -> CurrentJDK lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 10 10 Dec 2009 1.4.2 -> CurrentJDK lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 10 10 Dec 2009 1.5 -> CurrentJDK lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 10 10 Dec 2009 1.5.0 -> CurrentJDK lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 5 10 Dec 2009 1.6 -> 1.6.0 drwxr-xr-x 8 root wheel 272 15 Apr 13:18 1.6.0 drwxr-xr-x 9 root wheel 306 15 Apr 13:18 A lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1 10 Dec 2009 Current -> A lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 3 27 Apr 22:25 CurrentJDK -> 1.6 The problem you're specifying is very strange as it's not required to install JDK/JRE 1.5 to compile the code for 1.5. Can you share the snapshot of your eclipse > preferences > java > compiler screen. Also make sure the the project's compiler settings are not overriding eclipse global compiler settings.
