Obviously GNU Emacs does not know where to search for the latex  
executable. This means that the process environment in which GNU  
Emacs runs does not have an environment variable PATH that contains  
the path to latex as one of many elements. The reason is that the  
complete value of PATH (or $PATH) was not inherited from whatever  
launched GNU Emacs.

The cure is: correct GNU Emacs launch.
Or correct the value of the GNU Emacs variable exec-path (to contain  
also the path to latex).
