Johansen test

I'm trying to do Johansen test for cointegration to test if PPP holds.
When estimating a VECM model, there is something called "Cointegration Restrictions" in the output.
My question is how this output should be interpreted? The chi-square value is very large and the p-value is small, which implies that the null hypothesis should be rejected. The problem is that I don't know what the null hypothesis is in this case. :roll:
Please help me understand this.

If you can reject the null hypothesis it means that the restriction (under H0) does not hold, i.e. the PPP does not hold.
