How to run pdflatext is extremely dependent on what TeX system you have
installed. Also, how to run command-line programs differs if e.g. you have
cygwin installed. These are questions that only you can answer. In particular,
you *have* installed a TeX system on your machine, right?

In the meantime, how about sending the .tex file itself to the list? If
we can process it to pdf, then that indicts your TeX setup. If not, then
your orgmode setup might be at fault. The file itself should be in the
same directory that your .org file is (I think).

BTW, the reason that the backtrace is not useful in this case is that we know
exactly why emacs got an error: it tried to call an external program to do the
processing. IOW, seeing into the emacs processing (which is what the backtrace
shows) is not going to be useful: we need to see inside the tex->pdf
processing instead.

HTH,
Nick
