Hudson - Unable to create the home directory

Hello, I installed tomcat and downloaded hudson.war and put it into
/opt/tomcat/webapps/hudson.war

I'm able to navigate to localhost:8080/hudson, but I only see this message:

Unable to create the home directory {0}. This is most likely a permission problem.

To change the home directory, use HUDSON_HOME environment variable or set the HUDSON_HOME system property. See Container-specific documentation for more details of how to do this.

------------

I've set HUDSON_HOME in a gazillion places -- yet none of them has done any good.

Can anyone point me to a solution?

Thanks,
