truffle-contract: Contract has not been deployed to detected network (network/artifact mismatch)

Question

I am running a private network and would like to use truffle-contract to interact with the contracts. Unfortunately it gives me this error:

Error: Contract has not been deployed to detected network (network/artifact mismatch)

I am using truffle-contract@3.0.7 and here is how I set up my code:

const Web3 = require('web3-quorum');
const truffleContract = require('truffle-contract');

const web3 = new Web3(new Web3.providers.HttpProvider('http://127.0.0.1:22000'));

const ContractJSON = require('./build/contracts/Contract.json');

var MyContract = truffleContract({
    abi: ContractJSON.abi,
    unlinked_binary: ContractJSON.bin,
    address: ContractJSON.address
});
MyContract.setProvider(web3.currentProvider);

MyContract.deployed().then(function(instance) {  
    return instance.myMethod(
        web3.utils.toHex('31ad646cf39d485d8df7'), 
        Number(100), 
        Number(12345));
}).then(function(result) {
    console.log(result);
}).catch(err => { console.log(err); });

I also tried MyContract.setNetwork(10);, whereby 10 matches net.version output (geth console) or also chainId in the genesis.json. Unfortunately without luck.

Passing the whole artifact file to truffleContract make it work, ie something like

...
const ContractJSON = require('./build/contracts/Contract.json');
var MyContract = truffleContract(ContractJSON)
...
