There must be something wrong, or you wouldn't be asking for help :-).

It suggests to me that the code (CGI form submission data) is sending
run_mod2 each time, and not what you think it is sending.

I suggest you put some logging code in that sub and report both the run
mode and the CGI form parameters.

In cgiapp_prerun I always call a sub which does this (among other
things):

# Log the CGI form parameters.

my($q) = $self -> query;

$self -> log(info => '');
$self -> log(info => $q -> url(-full => 1, -path => 1) );
$self -> log(info => "Param: $_: " . $q -> param($_) ) for $q -> param;
