Application spyder launch may have produced errors

I am trying to start Spyder from Anaconda on a Mac, but get the error below. As a result, Spyder does not launch. The same error arises if I try to launch Spyder from the terminal.

Any ideas on the cause of the error and/or how to solve it? There have been similar questions in the past but the errors were different, that's why I am reposting.

Versions: Spyder - 3.2.8 Anaconda - 1.8.3 Python - 3.6.5

Traceback (most recent call last):
