Not able to link HDF5 path in CMake configuration

Question

I'm trying to create make files of C++ code on a server doing

cmake ../

and I get the error

-- Could NOT find HDF5 (missing: HDF5_INCLUDE_DIRS) (found version "1.10.7")
CMake Error at src/CMakeLists.txt:180 (message):
  HDF5 support was requested, but no HDF5 library was found on this system

I have installed HDF5 in /home/directory/ so I have HDF5 include and library files in

/home/directory/include

/home/directory/lib

I've tried to add in CMakeLists.txt the following lines:

 set(HDF5_LIBRARIES "/home/directory/")

 set(HDF5_CXX_LIBRARIES "/home/directory/")

 set(HDF5_INCLUDE_DIRS "/home/directory/")

 set(HDF5_CXX_INCLUDE_DIRS "/home/directory/")

But still getting the error. I've also tried to export HDF5_ROOT=/home/directory/ without success.

The error come from the following lines in the code:

  if (HDF5_FOUND)
            target_include_directories(soft PUBLIC ${HDF5_INCLUDE_DIRS})
            target_link_libraries(soft PUBLIC ${HDF5_LIBRARIES})
    else (HDF5_FOUND)
            message(FATAL_ERROR "HDF5 support was requested, but no HDF5 library was found on this system")
    endif (HDF5_FOUND)

Any help?

Using CMake 3.19.3 and hdf5-1.10.7
