[Qgis-developer] Could not add Google Satellite and Google Hybrid using OpenLayers Plugin

Wed May 18 23:33:21 EDT 2011

Hi Everyone,

I have build QGIS 1.6 using MS Visual Studio 2008 and Python 2.5. I
have added OpenLayers 0.71 plugin to my application. I am able to see Google
Street map. But when I select Google Hybrid, I could see only labels and
inplace of maps I get message as "Sorry, no imagery avaialable here". Please
help me for this.

thanks in advance
