Unable to connect to databricks with ODBC connection on a Mac

Hi all!

Need help configuring ODBC connection on a Mac. I'm receiving the error "The web server failed to start, please verify if  port 8020 is being used by another connection or annother application".

I've downloaded and installed Databricks ODBC connector for Mac.
I've configured the odbc.ini file with the same parameters I use to connect on Windows.
Even so, I stumbled on the error below

I've checked that port 8020 is not being used.
I"ve tried running Excel as root user. No success, though
