php json字符串返回false,php – json_encode()返回false

这是我第一次面对，数组的var_dumping json_encode导致布尔值。

我有一个阵列是由非串行化造成的。我var_dumped它，并确保它是一个有效的数组。结果如下。这只是一个，而不是整个调试视图。

array (size=3)

'id' => string 'asco-power-technologies-l-p' (length=27)

'name' => string 'asco-power-technologies-l-p' (length=27)

'children' =>

array (size=2)

0 =>

array (size=4)

'id' => string 'apl-logistics' (length=13)

'name' => string 'APL LOGISTICS' (length=13)

'data' =>

array (size=2)

'band' => string 'ASCO POWER TECHNOLOGIES ,L.P.' (length=29)

'relation' => string 'Buyer of band' (length=13)

'children' =>

array (size=11)

0 => &

array (size=3)

'id' => string 'trisa-ag' (length=8)

'name' => string 'TRISA AG' (length=8)

'data' =>

array (size=2)

'band' => string 'APL LOGISTICS' (length=13)

'relation' => string 'Buyer of band' (length=13)

1 => &

array (size=3)

'id' => string 'colgate-sanxiao-co-ltd' (length=22)

'name' => string 'COLGATE SANXIAO CO LTD' (length=22)

'data' =>

array (size=2)

'band' => string 'APL LOGISTICS' (length=13)

'relation' => string 'Buyer of band' (length=13)

…..

Aterwards i json_encode with max depth = 3。注意，我使用PHP 5.5并在Apache 2.4上运行，因此它支持json_encode()上的depth参数。这是我在做什么

$array = unserialize($serial);

var_dump($array);

$json = json_encode($array, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT, 3);

var_dump($json);

最后我得到$ array var_dumped正确和$ json var_dumped结果为false布尔值。它出什么问题了？是由于早期的PHP发布，不合适的var_dump会导致false布尔值？有没有人面对过这个？

更新：

这是串行字符串。整个字符串太多了，所以我只贴一块。
