Description

Documentation for running [.NET 6 on IIS](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/host-and-deploy/iis/?view=aspnetcore-6.0) is incomplete and out of date.

1. The documentation to install the hosting bundle points to the .NET 5 hosting bundle. Example: For example: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/tutorials/publish-to-iis?view=aspnetcore-6.0&tabs=visual-studio
2. None of the documentation mentions web.config or how to wire up IIS to server the .NET Core module.
3. Separately finding the [web.config](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/host-and-deploy/iis/web-config?view=aspnetcore-6.0) documentation and using the configurations shown for previous versions of Dot Net Core after installing the correct .NET 6 hosting bundle does not appear to work.

Without a handler, the error `HTTP Error 403.14 - Forbidden The Web server is configured to not list the contents of this directory.` is shown
```xml





```

With a v2 handler specified the `HTTP Error 500.31 - Failed to load ASP.NET Core runtime` is shown

```xml








```

With a AspNetCoreModule handler specified the `HTTP Error 502.5 - Process Failure` is shown
