Problems installing 9.0.24229 upgrade

When I attempt to install the 9.0.24229 upgrade, there is a brief period of nothing on the screen except the Mac desktop background with a Parallels menu bar showing. After a few seconds, Parallels quits, but no update has happened, so I get another notice to update the next time I start Parallels.

Anyone else see this. Any idea what's wrong? This is on Mavericks 10.9.2 on a MacBook Pro with 8GB RAM. The previous update to 9.0.24217 worked fine on Feb. 25, 2014.

Thanks.
