Have you tried installing whilst in Safe Mode, Use safe mode to isolate issues with your Mac – Apple Support
If you are trying to update using the System Preferences> Software update mechanism then make sure your
mac is connected to your router via cable. And if that still does not work try downloading the Combo update
from here, https://support.apple.com/kb/DL2010?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
do not use the mac while it is downloading and do not use any other devices that share the same internet
connection.
