You need to add the em.taxonomies package. If you're running the latest 
plumi, you can uncomment the em.taxonomies product under thw eggs, zcml 
and sources sections in site.cfg. After that, you need to re-run 
buildout (you can use the option -N to avoid redownloading the existing 
packages). After that, (re)start your zope instance and the 
em.taxonomies product should appear on the plone control panel.

Also, we seem to be running in debug mode which I have tried to turn off by setting debug-mode= off as per the instructions at /Plone/plone_control_panel. However this message keeps displaying suggesting that debug mode isn't being turned off properly.

1GB of RAM is kind of low for zope/plone. 2GB should cover it though. 
Running the site in debug mode also slows it down a lot. Are you running 
a production buildout or a development one?

AFAIK Plone supports ldap through the product:
