I don't know what you have tried and not tried. If it was me I would first try updating your news module in system admin-->modules. If no joy you can also overwrite the news module files and then do another news module update.
I have no link to your site, working in the dark, do you have lots of existing articles? There is some "News Clones" around which you can install and run alongside your existing News. If the clone works then it would likely be a database problem. I would try a repair on your database using phpadmin.
To find a news clone just type "news clone" in the XOOPS search.
phpdebug might not show any errors in this instance, but worth having a look. I notice you shifted from windows, this may be related to that.
Last resort is to uninstall News and re-install.
