That particular regulator can have different pinouts. I have been bitten before. So double check that based on the supplier.
What voltage are you seeing on the output? I believe the best you can get out of that regulator without a big heatsink is maybe 500mA which is borderline for the BBB. You are dropping 6.7V across the regulator.
