Tagging isn't supported with the encapsulation you're using. That was the only thing I found wrong with your config. Is yourT-LDP session ok? Do you have a lab router you can use to try this on? What code are you running? If a vanilla VPLS config weren't working in a particular version of JunOS that should be in release notes somewhere. Did they verify your T-LDP and mention your encapsulation? Not that JTAC has ever come up with the wrong answer for me, mind you.
