Just copy the voc.names file in the darknet parent directory (outside the cfg folder) and it worked for me. Note that this is the temporary solution and you need to fix that by changing paths appropriately.

@shailaja183 I solved the issue. Please open your voc.data file and give the absolute path of voc.names file. That will solve the issue.
