CGI::Application only looks for $self->query->param('rm') by default, so for 
POST requests, you need to add a hidden input with the rm. The URL param you 
put in the action is ignored.

This means your form should look like:

   <form name="conf" method="post" action="?">
     <input type="hidden" name="rm" value="configuration">

The other alternative is to make cgiapp look for a url param if there is no 
regular query param, but that's a bit more involved.
