Can I use wsHttpBinding along with webHttpBinding in WCF service?

I have a custom username-password WCF service that needs to be called by Windows client (Winforms application) as well as by Web client (html/aspx page). I have two endpoints declarations in web.config but, to make it work, I have to comment one of them and so, only the client type, associated with that un-commented endpoint, can access the service. If I un-commment that, and comment the other one, other client can access it. I can't keep both of them and so I can't access it with both types of clients.

<service behaviorConfiguration="Behavior1" name="BeST.Service.Service">
    <endpoint address="" binding="webHttpBinding" contract="BeST.Service.IService" behaviorConfiguration="EndpBehavior"></endpoint>
    <endpoint address="" binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="Binding1"
     contract="BeST.Service.IService" />
    <endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange" />
    <host>
      <baseAddresses>
        <add baseAddress="http://localhost/" />
      </baseAddresses>
    </host>
  </service>

just as the code shows, I need to use both endpoints (above two endpoints) if I want to make this service work for both clients OR, if there's another way to have it done, please help!

The problem is that you are giving the same address to both endpoints. Try to give another relative address to one of your endpoints and it should work.

<service behaviorConfiguration="Behavior1" name="BeST.Service.Service">
  <endpoint address="web" binding="webHttpBinding" contract="BeST.Service.IService" behaviorConfiguration="EndpBehavior"></endpoint>
  <endpoint address="" binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="Binding1"
    contract="BeST.Service.IService" />
  <endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange" />
  <host>
    <baseAddresses>
      <add baseAddress="http://localhost/" />
    </baseAddresses>
  </host>
</service>
