Someone else might have a better answer, but can you check your system
itself first? I'm guessing "exec-path" is an Org/Emacs variable?

Just try:

$ which pdflatex

Or

$ pdflatex --version

That would be my suggestion for starters. At least then you know it's
definitely not your system/setup (my bet is that it is, though).
