Description
There are 2 issues in one:
- (simple, but important) The method getJsonLd() in DatasetPage.java needs to catch an exception from the export, as to NOT kill the page with a 500 when it fails, for whatever reason.
- The specific issue of an html entity
"resulting in a failure to export and cache the jsonLd/SchemaDotOrg format. (Will add the details in the next comment, to keep the description compact).

Research direction
Start in DatasetPage.java at getJsonLd() and reproduce the failure using a dataset containing the quoted HTML entity shown in the issue. Trace the SchemaDotOrg export and cache path, then ensure an export exception does not turn the dataset page into a 500 and that this input no longer breaks the JSON-LD export.
