Upgrade to Mojave restarts, still is High Sierra

On a late-2015 iMac with 32GM RAM and over 2TB free HD space, running High Sierra 10.13.6, I run "Install macOS Mojave.app", get the progress bar in its window, timing down from 14 minutes, near end computer restarts, but when I log in I still have High Sierra. Looks like nothing has changed!

What's wrong? How fix?

Although I have Intego NetBarrier and VirusBarrier installed, I disabled them before running the installer.

iMac, macOS High Sierra (10.13.6), 4.0GHz Corei7, 32GB, 3Tb Fusion

Problem solved: I trashed the downloaded installer app, downloaded it again, and ran the new copy. Everything went smoothly this time. It took roughly 90 minutes for the entire process after I started the installer.

It's possible that you downloaded Mojave but did not install it. Look in your Applications folder for "Install Mac OS Mojave". If it is there double-click to begin the install process.
