The complaints at the end indicate that MinionPro-Regular-Base-aa.tfm, among other things, isn't found. But MinionPro-Regular-Base-aa.tfm is in texmf-local/fonts/tfm/adobe/MinionPro. The MinionPro.map is enabled.

I don't think it is telling you it can't find the tfm---the failure comes in trying to find a PostScript font that MinionPro-Regular-Base-aa will map to, and resorting to an attempt to make a bitmap font before substituting cmr. 

Check (with kpsewhich) which psfonts.map is active, and then look in that file for lines containing MinionPro-Regular, to see what they resolve to (the last entry on the line.)
