That's because bash excepts a shell script as it's arguments.

Your <exec> translates to "bash scp -p -r ..." and scp is not a
script, it is a binary file. So it fails.

To execute any binary with bash, you need to give the -c argument.

bash -c scp -p -r ...

So you can adjust your <exec> task accordingly.
