AEM Dispatcher config for IIS missing IUSR permission

Question

Recently set up a dispatcher for AEM 6.3 pre-release on Windows Server 2016.

The instructions for configuration of the dispatcher on IIS at https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/dispatcher/disp-install.html is missing a step where the IUSR account my be granted write access to the web site root. Granting the app pool account permission does not seem to work and results in the error "Unable to create parent directory C:\inetpub\wwwroot\<site specific stuff>: Permission denied"

Looking through the history on-line this was reported back in 2013. Looks like the documentation was never updated to address this issue.
