Are you using mod_perl or plain CGI? If mod_perl, then you have move flexibility
for setting some things up.

Then they are your ":app" in Dispatch rules. And are the module's packages
really "Brand" and "Device"? No other project specific namespace?

If you are under mod_perl, then you can just make "gigservices" your <Location>
block from which you serve. Otherwise you'll need to do some mod_rewrite magic
stuff. Of if you aren't even using Apache or can't control your configuration
then I'm not sure Dispatch can be of much help. Translating URLs to resources is
part of the web server's job. Dispatch just helps to translate the rest of the
url into something C::A can use.

I would think a dispatch table like this (untested) would do what you want
(minus the "gigservices" bit. That will depend on how you have your web server
configured as I said above):
':app[get]' => { rm => 'get_rm' },
':app[post]' => { rm => 'post_rm' },

"errored out" is not very descriptive. It's hard to give advice on what to do
next without knowing more.
