I assume that you mean rndc.conf? If you have named the file
rnds.conf, that would explain it.

Looks fine. The "server" statement shouldn't be necessary.

You have a left parenthesis ('(') instead of a left curly bracket
between 'keys' and 'rndc_key; }' in the config listed above. You
need a left curly bracket ('{') instead.
If you copied and pasted it (that is, if it wasn't just a
transcription error) then try fixing that error and see if it
works.
