I am trying to make a command block that when a player walks over a block, it will detect the player and activate another command block with a different command. I tried:
/testfor @p {coordinates of the block}
but this doesn't work.

You can't use two [] next to each other.
/testfor @p[r=5,name=<PlayerName>]
Use a comma to separate different values. Don't add another [] next to it.
Place a command block with the /testfor @p[whatever] command.
Then, a redstone comparator facing outwards from the command block.
From there, place your redstone or any redstone contraption that needs the input.
Note: If the comparator's signal isn't strong enough (1 block worth of power), place a Redstone Repeater after the comparator and any output should now have 15 strength.

According to this page from the Minecraft wiki, you also need to specify a radius within the block to check for the player.
(The
r=isn't strictly necessary, but it makes the command a little clearer.)
