There is no problem, they are trying to view a page they do not have permission to view. Nothing to worry about.

How to know the problem/error?

.this error indicates that the bots go to non-existent pages on the site. Perhaps somewhere on the forum there are links that lead to them.

But this pages comes from Google? Other sites?

.these are search bots. Search bots follow the links that are on the site for its indexing. Somewhere on the site there is a link that leads to a non-existent page.
Example: https://xenforo.com/community/hello

Yes, this is because we convert VB to IPB, and IPB to XF... and we have thousands of URLs that are bad but we don´t know how to solve.
We try this and no runs, we have try a lot of configs and nothing: Redirection Scripts for Invision Forums 3.x

.I think what you need use redirection scripts for VB and for IPB to fix this. In any case, old urls will be automatically removed from the search index after some time.

No. At least not usually. They are more likely pages that are not visible to Guests.

And how to know what pages are trying to see?
