What do you have gnus-refer-article-method set to?

,----[ C-h v gnus-refer-article-method RET ]
| gnus-refer-article-method is a variable defined in `gnus.el'.
| Its value is (current
|  (nnml "archive")
|  (nntp "news.gmane.org")
|  (nntp "news.sunsite.dk")
|  (nnweb "google"
|         (nnweb-type google)))
| 
| Original value was current
| 
| Documentation:
| Preferred method for fetching an article by Message-ID.
| The value of this variable must be a valid select method as discussed
| in the documentation of `gnus-select-method'.
| 
| It can also be a list of select methods, as well as the special symbol
| `current', which means to use the current select method.  If it is a
| list, Gnus will try all the methods in the list until it finds a match.
